This student is featured for exemplary work during experiential education.
The preceptor had this to say about Dina:
Community Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experience
Dina helped with identifying patients missing vaccinations and called the patients to inform them. The vaccination rate for our pharmacy increased by 10% in the weeks she was here. She was exceptional with our medication therapy management program, her prior experience as a pharmacy technician helped her recognize medications she wasn’t familiar with. She positively impacted the health outcomes of each patient she contacted.
What was your favorite part of this rotation?
My favorite part of this rotation was being able to apply all of the information I had learned in my first year through real patient interactions, and then witnessing the positive impact I was able to leave on patients.
What advice do you have for pharmacy students preparing for rotations?
My advice to students preparing for their CIPPE is to establish a good relationship with your preceptor to help ensure effective communication.
What are your plans after graduation?
My plans after graduation are to pursue a residency or fellowship so I can gain the experience necessary to enter the pharmaceutical industry.
What is a fun fact about you?
