PCTH 5113 - Profession of Pharmacy Lab

This lab will focus on patient counseling and education. Students will be taught basic information on assessment, patient interviewing skills, and counseling using the top 100 drugs prescribed and the top major drug interactions. Students will be given both simulated and actual experiences to practice and build their skills. Actual experiences will be done at the Senior Centers and community pharmacies. Students will go to the same community pharmacy throughout the semester. Both the lab experiences and the community pharmacy's experiences will have a variety of assignments.
