To create, implement, and evaluate an elective course on the foundational aspects of exercise prescription to increase pharmacy students' knowledge about exercise and confidence in offering exercise advice in pharmacy practice.
A course was designed as an elective using the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines for exercise prescription for healthy and clinical populations.
Surveys of students who did and did not take the elective were conducted over 2 years to assess the impact of the course on students' confidence in knowledge and counseling. Students' confidence in counseling patients about exercise increased after taking the course and remained higher after 6 months.
This course increased pharmacy students' knowledge and confidence in incorporating exercise prescriptions in their advice to various patient populations.

该课程作为一门选修课,使用美国运动医学学院针对健康和临床人群的运动处方指南进行设计。
在 2 年的时间里,对选修和未选修该课程的学生进行了调查,以评估该课程对学生在知识和咨询方面的信心的影响。学生在参加该课程后,对为患者提供运动咨询的信心增强,并在 6 个月后仍保持较高水平。
该课程提高了药学学生将运动处方纳入对各种患者群体的建议中的知识和信心。
