Course description

This course aims to develop specific skills which will enable the student to immediately improve their practice of pharmacy and will be integrated with knowledge gained in Pharmacotherapeutics I & II, including topics such as laboratory function tests, drug history and academic detailing. This course introduces the student to advanced clinical pharmacy practice, with a focus on critical appraisal, drug information and EBM in patient centred, pharmaceutical care. It also includes topics such as diagnostics and monitoring, pharmacogenomics and drug interactions. An optional intensive weekend workshop on motivational interviewing and application of EBM can be attended in lieu of some online content.
