Every time a prescription is filled at Watkins Memorial Health Center's pharmacy, a pharmacy student gains practical experience.
Pharmacy fills students' bill
"Our role here is primarily as a lab for pharmacy students, to give them some professional experience." Baughman said. "It is important to note that most of the students who work here have never worked in a pharmacy before. It is their first real pharmaceutical experience."
By Tracy Wilkinson Kansan staff writer
"It adds a lot to the job," Brown said. "You hope that you help them. I don't want people thinking, 'Oh, a student filled my prescription.' The 3-P students and the student employees are supervised. The prescription is checked when they put it in the computer. Then it is checked again in the bottle with the label."
Both Baughman and Jeanie Brown, full-time pharmacist, said they enjoyed working with the students.
John Baughman, chief pharmacist, said he and the other two full-time paid employees were considered clinical instructors in the School of Pharmacy.
"I love it," he said. "They ask good questions regarding drugs, their use and their indications. It keeps us on our toes."
Baughman said that working with the student pharmacists was very rewarding and exciting.
The pharmacy serves as a supervised learning laboratory for 95 students throughout the academic school year.
Brown said there were two different categories of students.
"We look at it pretty much like the first experience of pharmacy, as field experience as opposed to book experience," she said.
"There are a lot of job opportunities," said Hayes. "I realize that sounds crass, but that is not all. You interact with a lot of people. That is kind of nice."
Baughman said staff members of the school and Watkins Pharmacy were aware of the need for the maintenance of confidentiality when filling prescriptions.
The first year pharmaceutical stu
dents have already completed two years of general education and are referred to as 3-Ps. These students are required to work three hours a week at Watkins pharmacy learning how to use the computer, how to quickly interchange the names of generic and brand name drugs, and how to correctly fill prescriptions, Brown said.
Brown said the job was a first step for the pharmacy students to see what their chosen career would be like.
Second- and third-year pharmaceutical students, referred to as 4- and 5-Ps, extend their basic job duties into more inventory ordering, stocking and patient counseling, she said.
"Right now I'm considered a pharmacy intern," Haney said. "I hope to work in a pharmacy this summer, with an experience . . on the job training."
"When they get more confident with what the drugs are and what they are for and making sure it is accurate information, then they get more involved in the counseling aspect," Brown said.
Lara Hayes, Shawnee senior, and Julee Haney, Olathe senior, are both 3-Ps in the pharmacy program and are licensed by the state as legitimate student pharmacists.
"We have all signed a statement saying we will uphold their policy pertaining to confidentiality," he said.
