To describe a collaborative undertaking between a private school of pharmacy (Bernard J. Dunn School of Pharmacy) and a public high school (John Handley High School) in the development, and implementation of a partnership utilizing high school theater students as standardized patients.
High school theater students were trained to portray patients within the Standardized Patient Assessment Laboratory. The patient encounters were videotaped and evaluated by both peer and faculty members. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of semi-structured interviews, focus groups, post-encounter surveys of students and faculty members, and encounter grades were used to evaluate the outcomes.
Pharmacy students exhibited competence in clinical assessment skills as evidenced by high encounter grades (91.5% +/- 6.8%) and 100% positive faculty feedback. The high school theater students self-reported that their improvisational skills improved through learning patient conditions and behaviors. Both schools met their mission statement and accreditation goals, including increased collaboration with the community.
This model for collaboration between a school of pharmacy and a high school using adolescents as simulated patients was successful in creating a beneficial learning experience for both the theater and pharmacy students.
描述一所私立药学院（伯纳德·J·邓恩药学院）与一所公立高中（约翰·汉德利高中）之间的一项合作项目，该项目利用高中戏剧学生作为标准化病人来开展合作并实施相关计划。
高中戏剧学生在标准化病人评估实验室接受培训以扮演病人。病人问诊过程被录像，并由同学和教师进行评估。通过对半结构化访谈、焦点小组、学生和教师问诊后调查以及问诊成绩进行定量和定性分析来评估结果。
药学专业学生在临床评估技能方面表现出能力，高问诊成绩（91.5%±6.8%）以及教师100%的积极反馈证明了这一点。高中戏剧学生自我报告称，通过学习病人病情和行为，他们的即兴表演技能得到了提高。两所学校都实现了各自的使命宣言和认证目标，包括加强与社区的合作。
这种药学院与高中合作的模式，利用青少年作为模拟病人，成功地为戏剧学生和药学专业学生都创造了有益的学习体验。
