Course description

The course builds on skills and knowledge gained so far in the BPharm(Hons) program and is vertically and horizontally integrated with other PHRM courses. The tutorials and practicals expand and reinforce concepts taught in EXTEND and Workshops and introduce students to elements of practice including some Over-The-Counter (OTC) medicines (relevant to Dermatology), patient consultation on prescription medications, troubleshooting prescribing errors with doctors, and dispensing while developing a patient-centred care approach. Placement in community pharmacy provides the opportunity to develop professional and social skills and apply pharmaceutical theory in a community and retail setting. This course also introduces interprofessional learning activities.
