Preceptor's Handbook for Pharmacists

Back

Preceptors have a demanding dual challenge. As pharmacists, they provide vital clinical care to patients. As teachers, they provide valuable experiential training to students. And they must do both efficiently and effectively. This new, single resource details successful methods for integrating these two roles, focusing on the highest quality performance standards for care today and the skills to pass these practices on to the caregivers of tomorrow.

The new Preceptor's Handbook for Pharmacistsis edited by pharmacist preceptors Lourdes M. Cuellar and Diane B. Ginsburg. The foreword is written by Henri R. Manasse, Jr., Executive Vice President and CEO, ASHP. The distinguished group of editors and contributors to this book present a comprehensive overview of experiential education from introductory rotations to advanced specialty training in eleven well-organized, easy-to-implement chapters. Topics include cognitive and affective learning; law and ethics; interpersonal; teaching and leadership skills; cultural, social and economic issues and integrating student practice.

The Preceptor's Handbook for Pharmacists is the first book written specifically to train the practicing pharmacists who are training our pharmacy students.
