Introduction to Health Systems Pharmacy Practice Credits: 3

Catalog description

This course is a required Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experience (IPPE) in which Pharm.D. students will spend three weeks during the summer after their second year providing patient-centered care in a health systems pharmacy practice setting. The experience will emphasize application of knowledge gained in didactic coursework at the student's level in the curriculum. Activities focus on understanding the medication use system and delivering care to patients in a hospital setting. The Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experiences seek to establish a solid practice foundation on which students will continually build as they progress through the Doctor of Pharmacy curriculum.
