Unacceptable Behaviors Towards Health Professional Clinical Students: Protocol For a Mixed-Methods Study.

Background And Aims: Previous studies describe the occurrence of unacceptable behaviors reported by students pursuing health professional education in Aotearoa, New Zealand and across the globe. These include, but are not limited to, experiences of verbal abuse, sexual harassment, and discrimination based on race/ethnicity, religious beliefs, gender, and sexual orientation. University of Otago teaching staff across the various health professional programs often receive anecdotal reports of these phenomena from their clinical students.

Exploring a scalable real-time simulation for interprofessional education in pharmacy and medicine.

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. The organisational logistics and cost of interprofessional education (IPE) remain barriers to widespread embedding of IPE activities in health care training.

Students' perceptions of playing a serious game intended to enhance therapeutic decision-making in a pharmacy curriculum.

Background And Purpose: Therapeutic decision-making is a critical part of the skill set required by practicing pharmacists. A potentially straightforward way to teach and evaluate decision-making skills is use of real-time simulations. This study aimed to evaluate pharmacy students' perceptions of using a real-time simulation game to treat their own virtual patient.

Measuring the Development of Therapeutic-Decision-Making Skills by Practicing Pharmacists Undertaking a University-Based Postgraduate Clinical Qualification at Distance.

(1) The processes and skills required to make decisions about drug therapy have been termed "therapeutic decision-making" in pharmacy practice. The aim of this study was to evaluate a tool constructed to measure the development of therapeutic-decision-making skills by practicing pharmacists undertaking a university-based continuing professional development program. (2) A pre- and post-intervention crossover study design was used to investigate the qualitative and quantitative features of practicing pharmacists' responses to two clinical vignettes designed to measure the development of therapeutic-decision-making skills.
