Within a health system, student pharmacists on rotation often are responsible for making numerous clinical interventions. However, oftentimes students are not engaged in the clinical intervention documentation, and do not have the opportunity to practice and develop their documentation skills prior to going into independent practice as a pharmacist. In this episode of Educator Essentials, we talk about implementing a standardized method for tracking student pharmacist interventions in the inpatient setting.
