PHAR 611P

Is a six week (240 hours) practice experience completed during the final year of the program. Students will develop the essential skills necessary to provide direct patient care to patients with complex pharmacotherapy needs, such as an inpatient hospital unit, acute care ambulatory care clinic, or a long-term care facility. Students will be expected to demonstrate leadership in the responsible provision of patient care by becoming an integral member of the healthcare team while confidently using clinical reasoning and critical thinking skills. Mentorship of junior students may be a component of this experience. Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPE) may occur at any time during the academic year and may be offered in whole or in part outside the normal start and end dates of a semester.
