Presbyterian College School of Pharmacy

Class of 2026 begins rotations!

The Class of 2026 (P1) is preparing to start their rst IPPE experiences in community pharmacy next week! They are excited and anxious to begin this new part of their pharmacy education and training. Many thanks to our P1 preceptors who make time for our students, especially during a very busy season in retail pharmacy!!

A couple items to note for P1 IPPEs: The IPPE workbook is now consolidated for P1-P3 years It is divided into 3 parts: community, hospital/health-system, and pre-clinical activities A full copy of the workbook is available in CORE ELMS

Preceptors do not have to sign or certify the activity logs any more. There is a new activity for P1 students: medication error assignment For this activity, they will review 20 lled and veried prescriptions and check for any potential errors (minor errors like typos or missing prescriber information to major errors like incorrect strength). This activity replicates a similar activity that was simulated in community lab last semester They may need assistance in pulling prescription images and verifying information
