To share the experiences of graduating students as they learn to deliver a new medication review service in community pharmacies in Ontario, Canada.
Four graduating pharmacy students volunteered in different community pharmacies to learn how to navigate a new provincial program called MedsCheck, which pays pharmacists to do medication reviews. Each student selected his or her own practice site, including 2 independent community pharmacies, a grocery store chain pharmacy and a hospital outpatient pharmacy.
To help the students learn to deliver the new MedsCheck services, a faculty mentor met with them on a weekly basis. To reflect on doing MedsChecks in the "real world" and to elicit feedback from the online community, each student blogged about his or her experiences.
All 4 students felt that peer mentoring improved their ability to deliver MedsCheck services. They also identified a number of barriers to delivering the MedsChecks and helped each other try to overcome the barriers.
MedsCheck is a new service in Ontario and is not easily implemented in the current pharmacy model of practice. Peer mentoring is a helpful way to share successes and overcome barriers to delivery. Can Pharm J 2013;146:33-38.
分享即将毕业的学生在加拿大安大略省社区药房学习提供新的药物评估服务时的经历。
四名即将毕业的药学专业学生在不同的社区药房自愿参与，学习如何开展一项名为“药物检查”（MedsCheck）的新省级项目，该项目会付钱给药剂师进行药物评估。每个学生选择了自己的实践地点，包括两家独立的社区药房、一家连锁杂货店药房和一家医院门诊药房。
为帮助学生学习提供新的“药物检查”服务，一位教师导师每周与他们会面。为了反思在“现实世界”中开展“药物检查”的情况并从在线社区获取反馈，每个学生都撰写了关于自己经历的博客。
所有4名学生都认为同伴指导提高了他们提供“药物检查”服务的能力。他们还找出了开展药物检查的一些障碍，并互相帮助努力克服这些障碍。
“药物检查”是安大略省的一项新服务，在当前的药房实践模式中不易实施。同伴指导是分享成功经验和克服实施障碍的一种有益方式。《加拿大药剂师杂志》2013年；146：33 - 38。
