General Psychiatry Foundations Practicum

5 credits · Graduate

Students will complete a 6-week (240 hour) advanced clinical practicum in a psychiatric acute care (hospital) setting. This introductory practicum can occur after completion of the required prerequisite courses in the master’s of clinical pharmacy program. Students will apply skills learned in previous coursework for contributing meaningfully, productively, and safely to direct patient care. Students will be exposed to a variety of patient conditions in order to experience a general psychiatry experience that will serve to build their expertise for application to other psychiatric practices in Canada.
