Description
This subject equips students with the essential knowledge and skills required for comprehensive patient care in a number of healthcare settings. It is the first of three therapeutics subjects that explore the integration of the pharmaceutical sciences, pharmacotherapy principles and patient-centred care to optimise therapeutic outcomes. Students delve into some of the most commonly encountered health conditions, including cardiovascular, respiratory and endocrine disorders, as well as important areas of pharmacotherapy such as anti-infectives and analgesics. Emphasis is placed on evidence-based practice, clinical reasoning and ethical considerations in medication management. Through a team-based learning (TBL) approach, students also focus on collaborative problem-solving, critical thinking and effective communication.
