“…The SEHR has been used by several colleges of pharmacy, often with less complex patient case information or to teach one particular aspect or skill related to practice, such as order verification or transitions of care. [23][24][25][26][27] In all instances, the authors reported improved patient care skills and student satisfaction or confidence with the use of a SEHR. [23][24][25][26][27] Although the use of a SEHR in this course was not singled out for evaluation in our course, students' patient-care skills did progress while using the SEHR to access patient information.…”

[23][24][25][26][27] Although the use of a SEHR in this course was not singled out for evaluation in our course, students' patient-care skills did progress while using the SEHR to access patient information. The use of the SEHR in this course was comprehensive in nature, based on patient case complexity and the amount of data available (eg, patient demographic and payer information, detailed progress notes, full reports and results of diagnostic tests, and medication administration record information) beyond basic information such as the medication list, past medical history, vital signs, and selected laboratory values that were contained in each patient record.…”

Objective. To develop, implement, and assess student performance and confidence in a pharmacy capstone course that used case-based instruction and the Pharmacist's Patient Care Process (PPCP) to develop patient work-up skills in third-year Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) students. Methods. A skills-based capstone course was developed by a team of faculty members and instructional designers that focused on patient evaluation skills and applying the steps of the PPCP to complex patient cases housed in a simulated electronic health record (SEHR). The acuity of the cases increased over the course of the semester. For each patient case, students were expected to identify drug-related problems and develop an assessment and plan based on the information provided in the SEHR. Results. Students (n5134) were assessed through weekly quizzes and two practical examinations. The average score for all quizzes was 81%. A significant correlation was found between average quiz scores and performance on the end-of-course practical examination. Student scores significantly improved from the first to the second practical examination (10.4 vs 12.9, respectively), and student confidence with regard to all course objectives significantly improved from the beginning to the end of the semester. Conclusion. A capstone course that applied the PPCP framework successfully taught third-year PharmD students the patient care skills they would need in advanced pharmacy practice experiences.
