Description
This course is taught in the second semester of the first professional year as a follow-up to PHARM 5140. In-class discussions and speakers require students to integrate assigned readings with speaker presentations on the many aspects of providing and receiving service and medical care. The course is intended to provide depth on issues relative to diversity, social awareness and civic responsibility, anchored to material from other PharmD courses that discuss the safety, economic, social and political aspects of health care provision from a patient-centered care perspective.
