Blog 5 Project Reflection and Working EQ

The Pentagon: 

(1) Positive Statement: What positive thing happen as a result of what you have completed so far?

I have found more information on what jobs having a Pharm D. Degree can provide.

(2) EQ Content:  Pick a piece of research or your interview.  How has it helped you improve your understanding of your topic?

My interview has helped me understand that topic is critical (in a clinical setting) to saving lives, and with the job comes many issues, such as drug shortages and compounding errors, that could be easily fixed.

(3) What has worked for you so far in the senior project?

Having useful contacts through my mom and friends for people I can interview and ask for helpful sources.

(4) What hasn't worked so far?  

Finding up to date information has been a struggle because the medical field is constantly evolving.

(5) Finding Value:  

 What is a potential question you would like to study this year?  (working EQ)

 What do you plan to do for mentorship?  If you haven't found a mentor yet, then discuss where you are currently looking and who you are talking to to find it.  

My potential question is how does pharmacy impact a hospital setting? Observe and assist a clinical and/or retail pharmacist. I do not have a mentor definitely but I have many people willing to do it. I have one in Beverley Hospital who is Dr. Campbell and a retail pharmacist at a drug store, but I have only met her once.
