This is the first of a series of six pharmacy skills and simulation focused courses where students will apply knowledge and develop skills needed to provide patient centred pharmacy care. Students will engage in guided, independent and collaborative learning experiences such as conducting patient interviews, gathering and interpreting health and medication histories, participating in prescription processing, responding to drug information queries, performing physical assessments, and evaluating appropriateness of drug therapy. Students will explore the ethical and legal dimensions of pharmacy practice, including responsible prescribing and decision making that prioritizes patient safety and fosters culturally competent care. Topics covered in this course will align with Applied Therapeutics 1.
