Clinical Placement

PHAR4822

This unit of study is entirely comprised of clinical and experiential placements. These placements will be undertaken in settings of professional practice: in community pharmacies, hospital pharmacies and clinics and other professional organisation sites. The placements may include rural as well as metropolitan sites, and involve the public and private health sector. Students will document activities undertaken at the practice site using the portfolio, under the guidance and supervision of the preceptor or supervising pharmacist. The portfolio is a guide to professional activities and the Pharmacist Competencies Framework. A reflective diary will be included in the assessment. This unit of study provides the opportunity for students to appreciate the health care setting, professional practice issues, and to apply and consolidate their knowledge within the context of the professional placement setting.
