EXPERIENTIAL EDUCATION
Inter-professional Experiences (Introductory
Experiences)
Description of activity
Inter-professional experiences involve students and faculty from a
variety of health disciplines. The goal for student pharmacists is
to gain an appreciation of how other health care providers approach
patient care. Activities range from case discussions to
inter-professional patient care rounds (depending on student level and
institution capabilities).
Rationale
Inter-professional experiences broaden student perspectives and promote
pharmaceutical care. In addition these activities have been endorsed and
encouraged by the Institute of Medicine (reference provided below).
