Improving Self-Perceived Competencies of Second-Year Pharmacy Students Through an Introductory Medication Reconciliation Rotation.

Objective: Medication reconciliation (MedRec) is an essential health care function that is particularly relevant to pharmacists' expertise and a learning opportunity for pharmacy students. Our objective was to assess change across clinical competence, confidence, and communication skills after the completion of a MedRec rotation by second-year pharmacy students.

Methods: A retrospective post-then-pre-survey including 29 questions was developed/delivered to students after the completion of required MedRec hours.
