Current hospital and health-system participation in and the future capacity for experiential education for pharmacy students was investigated.
An online survey of ASHP members identified as U.S. pharmacy directors was conducted to assess their current and future involvement in partnering with colleges and schools to meet the experiential education requirements for doctor of pharmacy students and the current status of the student learning experiences. Questionnaire items examined the factors on which expanded involvement in experiential education would depend, the nature of support provided by colleges and schools, the types of experiences available for students, respondents' perceptions of factors influencing the quality of experiential education, the value of experiential education to the sites, respondents' challenges and concerns about experiential education, and respondents' current capacity and projections for introductory and advanced experiences through 2012.
Data from 549 respondents were analyzed. Most respondents indicated that they had conducted advanced experiences for their 2007 graduates and anticipated that they would continue to do so. Among the top challenges identified regarding advanced experiences were concerns about time to serve and be trained as preceptors and a lack of standardization and coordination among colleges and schools. Hospitals forecasting their future capacity to accommodate students indicated that their projections were highly dependent on the number of pharmacists at their hospitals. Many respondents noted that their capacity projections were tied to their ability to expand clinical services at their hospitals.
A survey of pharmacy directors suggested an ability of U.S. hospitals to conduct advanced experiential education opportunities for pharmacy students through 2012 and to expand introductory experiences.
调查当前医院及卫生系统参与药学专业学生体验式教育的情况以及未来开展该教育的能力。
对被认定为美国药学主任的美国卫生系统药师协会（ASHP）成员进行在线调查，以评估他们当前及未来在与学院和学校合作方面的参与情况，以满足药学博士学生的体验式教育要求，以及学生学习体验的现状。问卷项目考察了扩大参与体验式教育所依赖的因素、学院和学校提供的支持性质、学生可获得的体验类型、受访者对影响体验式教育质量因素的看法、体验式教育对实习单位的价值、受访者在体验式教育方面面临的挑战和担忧，以及受访者截至2012年在入门级和进阶体验方面的现有能力和预测情况。
对549名受访者的数据进行了分析。大多数受访者表示，他们为2007年毕业的学生开展了进阶体验活动，并预计会继续这样做。在进阶体验方面确定的首要挑战包括担心担任带教老师的服务和培训时间，以及学院和学校之间缺乏标准化和协调。预测未来接收学生能力的医院表示，他们的预测高度依赖于医院药师的数量。许多受访者指出，他们的能力预测与医院扩展临床服务的能力相关。
对药学主任的调查表明，美国医院有能力在2012年前为药学专业学生提供进阶体验式教育机会，并扩大入门级体验。
