Teaching PhilosophyStudents are taught in a decentral clinical pharmacist model. Teaching is both by example, 1:1 instruction and through rounds and presentations. The student will be responsible for all aspects of pharmaceutical care of assigned patients. The student will act under the supervision of decentral pharmacists and the preceptor and should discuss therapy recommendations with the decentral pharmacist before offering the recommendations. The student shall be responsible for attending all pre-arranged one-on-one rounds and discussions with the preceptor concerning the pharmaceutical care of critically ill children. Attendance at pharmacy educational lectures, discussions, journal club, and pharmaceutical care rounds, and hospital grand rounds is required. The student will also be required to give three presentations: one informal case report, one formal case with disease review (PowerPoint), and one article for journal club. The target audiences for these presentations will be other students, preceptors, and staff pharmacists. |
