Improvement in inpatient discharge planning for patients with alcohol use disorder with the implementation of a team-based multidisciplinary workflow.

Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a major economic and healthcare burden in the United States. While there is evidence-based medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for AUD, few physicians implement these therapies on a regular basis.

Objective: To determine the impact of a pharmacy-guided AUD discharge planning workflow on the rate of MAT prescriptions and inpatient readmissions.

Interprofessional Perceptions and Attitudes Among Pharmacy and Family Nurse Practitioner Students.

Introduction: Interprofessional education (IPE) activities involving pharmacy (PharmD) and family nurse practitioner (FNP) students is understudied. Interactions between PharmD and FNP students have become important since most recent Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education standards included a requirement for schools of pharmacy to have IPE. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the perceptions and attitudes among PharmD and FNP students towards an IPE activity.
