This four-week (40 hours per week) introductory rotation provides pharmacy students with an opportunity to engage in medication dispensing and patient care in a community pharmacy setting with the help and guidance of a pharmacist preceptor. The Pharmacist's Patient Care process, pharmacy law and ethics, medication coverage, medication dispensing process, drug information, communication skills, and collaborative practice are key areas of this rotation. Students are required to travel to sites outside the Halifax area and are responsible for all associated costs.
