Preceptor Development
Our preceptors play a valuable role in our overall student experience. Preceptor pharmacy sites work with our students providing a glimpse of what it is like to work on a pharmacy team. Through clinical rotations, students are exposed to a variety of scenarios in which they learn about medication management, patient relations, and the vital role that pharmacists play in overall health care.
