2nd MyPSA X MIMS Case Clerking Workshop 2022 : Towards an Efficient Pharmacy Profession
2022-05-01 | Online
Case Clerking is a day-to-day job scope of a clinical pharmacist. As a pharmacy student, we are being exposed to case studies as early as the first year of degree studies and in the final year, we are required to clerk clinical cases and to deliver a presentation on the case assigned. Therefore, it is very important for pharmacy students to master the skill of clinical case clerking. Students should be well developed to clerk cases from the point of view of a pharmacist and contribute to the clinical improvement of patients by ensuring that medications dispensed are accurate, safe and effective. Pharmacists are the drug expert and thus the foundation of case clerking skills must be well built in every pharmacy student.
The 2nd MyPSA X MIMS Case Clerking Workshop 2022 is one of the continuing initiatives by Malaysian Pharmacy Students’ Association (MyPSA) 2021/22 with the aim to develop pharmacy students into well-skilled pharmacists in case clerking. There are 2 workshop segments to be covered under this event, the first one is more general on the tips and tricks in case clerking while the second one is the hands-on application of the tips learned to clerk a challenging cases that has minimal resources.
