“…In addition, a higher degree of engagement in the teaching of practical courses can also enhance the sense of engagement of the students in the whole course, so that they can gradually realize their dominant position in the teaching activities, thereby enhancing the sense of gain and accomplishment, and realizing the effect of practical lessons on theoretical lessons [3]. The back-feeding of the whole course makes the teaching effect of the whole course better.…”

With a primary care physician shortage, utilization of pharmacists in the ambulatory care setting has proven to have positive economic and clinical outcomes for the practice and for patients. To extend the reach of the pharmacists, students may assist with patient care activities, such as medication reconciliation, point-of-care testing, and counseling. Evidence has shown that students benefit in building confidence, as well as improved perceptions of interprofessional care, while positive patient outcomes are maintained. There are many methods for schools to integrate these experiences early into their curriculum, as well as for students to explore opportunities on their own.

“…This long-standing collaboration has utilized the five American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) Global Health Pillars of Engagement to develop and maintain an eight-week international internal medicine APPE [ 4 , 5 ]. There is evidence for students’ positive impact on patient care within high-income countries (HICs) APPEs and within the PUCOP internal medicine APPE in Eldoret, Kenya but limited documentation of student impact in other LMIC settings [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. There is also a lack of documentation comparing student interventions on internal medicine APPEs within each setting.…”

Student pharmacists can have a positive impact on patient care. The objective of this research was to compare clinical interventions made by Purdue University College of Pharmacy (PUCOP) student pharmacists completing internal medicine Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPE) in Kenya and the US. A retrospective analysis of interventions made by PUCOP student pharmacists participating in either the 8-week global health APPE at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH-Kenya) or the 4-week adult medicine APPE at the Sydney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital (SLEH-US) was completed. Twenty-nine students (94%) documented interventions from the MTRH-Kenya cohort and 23 (82%) from the SLEH-US cohort. The median number of patients cared for per day was similar between the MTRH-Kenya (6.98 patients per day, interquartile range [IQR] = 5.75 to 8.15) and SLEH-US students (6.47 patients per day, IQR = 5.58 to 7.83). MTRH-Kenya students made a median number of 25.44 interventions per day (IQR = 20.80 to 28.95), while SLEH-US students made 14.77 (IQR = 9.80 to 17.72). The most common interventions were medication reconciliation/t-sheet rewrite and patient chart reviews for MTRH-Kenya and the SLEH-US, respectively. This research highlights how student pharmacists, supported in a well-designed, location-appropriate learning environment, can positively impact patient care.
