Description
The University of Louisiana at Monroe College of Pharmacy has incorporated a longitudinal service-learning program throughout the didactic portion of the curriculum. Every semester, each class is assigned a service-learning project beginning in the fall semester of the P1 year with the "My First Patient" project. This project entails students becoming their own first patients, completing medical histories and a behavior change and action plan assignment as well as writing a reflective essay. Our students participate in many more service-learning projects during their time in the College of Pharmacy, examples of which will be discussed.
