Pharmacy and Wellness Review

Introductory pharmacy practice experience (IPPE) hours are a means of integrating experiential education as a key role early on in pharmacy education. The Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) has offered little guidance on mandatory and specific objectives to accomplish during IPPE hours, thus it is possible that preceptors do not feel adequately prepared, nor do they have a full understanding of what is required of them when they agree to precept an IPPE student. Given the lack of previous research conducted, the objective of this study was to obtain an understanding of the general attitude that preceptors have toward …

New Graduate Orientation Evaluation: Are There Any Best Practices Out There?”, Jennifer Laflamme

2019 Sigma Region 15 Nursing Research Symposium

In the current nursing shortage, a time when healthcare needs to get innovative with hiring and retaining new graduate nurses, orientation can be a factor in a new graduate’s decision to leave their place of employment. Efficient, cost effective, and safe orientations with clear expectations are necessary, including orientation evaluation. There is, however, little guidance in the literature on best practices for completing an orientation evaluation. Although scarce, innovations and evidence do exist, as do research opportunities, and those are discussed during this presentation. The purpose of this project was to describe, based on the literature, current evidence that seeks …

Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Increases Pathology Resident Self Wellness, Kaitlin Collura, Md, Phd, Joanna Chan, Md

Department of Pathology, Anatomy, and Cell Biology Posters

Stress during medical residency is a common, complex issue influenced by time demands, level of social support, and environmental factors. Increased stress levels can lead to resident burnout, and may contribute to the high rates of depression and suicide seen among physicians. In 2015, the ACGME began a campaign to promote resident wellness by calling on programs to implement strategies to develop resiliency, identify problems, and promote wellbeing. Mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) strategies have been shown to decrease burnout, improve mood, and increase compassion in healthcare providers. We implemented a wellness retreat to educate residents on the principles of …
