Teaching Philosophy

Students will participate in patient directed learning, building the learning experience around the patient case load presented and a given patients unique and individual needs.  Students learn the importance of marketing to and recruiting patients for our diverse patient services.  We foster relationship building and grow patient and provider comminications skills.  Students are active participants in medication therapy management from pre-appointed preparation, conducting patient evaluation and assessment, and post appointment documentation.  We believe students learn by shadowing, practicing, doing and teaching.  Presentations to patients and other health care providers are routine.  We work on training students to become primary care pharmacist to their future patients.
