Site-Specific Policies
Information The student is expected to act as a professional. This includes keeping track
of their schedule. An initial calendar will be provided on the first day with
known activities included. However, this rotation can be unpredictable and
unanticipated learning experiences are likely to present themselves. The
student will be provided information on any unplanned opportunities and will
be responsible for making sure that they arrive on time and/or complete the
reading or assignment as instructed. Questions and clarification are always
encouraged, but the responsibility rests with the student.
Rotation days will vary, but they will often include hands on compounding,
spending time with various hospital services and working within the
pharmacy. When there is downtime the student is welcome to work on
assignments; however, it is expected that students will work at home, if
needed, to complete assignments on time.
