From the Desk of the CEO

My recent rotation with the APhA executive office was full of new challenges and experiences. The executive office deals with all facets of the association as well as the APhA Foundation and being there with The 2022 APhA Annual Meeting & Exposition approaching meant that daily tasks were consumed with preparations for a successful conference.

As student pharmacists, we are familiar with the roles and responsibilities that a pharmacist has in the community; pharmacists are well-known for being one of the most trusted and accessible health care professionals for patients. However, the pharmacy profession extends beyond one-on-one patient care and medication reconciliation. One of the many ways that pharmacists can make an impact is through nuclear pharmacy.

I was looking forward to my BPS rotation at APhA headquarters, but COVID-19 had other plans.

Hello, student pharmacists! I hope everyone had a nice holiday season and some much-needed time to recharge. With the start of a new year and semester, I wish everyone the best of luck and success. I want to give you an update on my recent rotation experiences.

It’s amazing to see how much of an impact pharmacists continue to make on patient care using telehealth.
