Pharmacotherapy Lectures: Need your valuable insights

Dear All PharmD's,
Act today for better tomorrow. Need your valuable support and it's important for a better profession for representation.

Since few years, we are striving for the better profession to become equally competent with the western world. In this regard, we had conversations with our Honorable Prime Minister Shri. Narendra Modi Ji, Central and State Ministries. Our request is accepted and soon the issues of unemployment will be addressed. It is very important for us to even think of the quality of PharmD Education in India.

What have we done till date??
1) We addressed the issue and importance of scholarly research in India and revealed the results for discussion.
2) We addressed the importance of Preceptorship and bedside teaching and discussed with resource persons of American Colleges of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP), USA.
3) We discussed the issue of unemployment with respective state and Central Ministries, certain issues are already represented by the Central Minister J.P. Nadda in the World Health Assembly.
4) We are also a part of various International Organisations and platforms like ACCP, FIP, USAID, WHO, European Nations, South African, Asian and Gulf Nations representing Indian PharmD globally.
5) We are conducting various interactive programmes among countries and are part of Global research representing Indian PharmD.



What is this initiative about??
As Pharmacotherapy is the soul of PharmD it is important to raise our standards to become enough competent. PharmD is highly sophisticated in the West and hence they've developed 114 Specialities and employed 1000's of Clinical Pharmacists. We are ought to be on the same path and improve our professional standards. Hence we need to know our present education system and quality of Pharmacotherapy lectures. Let us know your valuable inputs by just sparing 5 -10 min, we shall invest our time, money and energy to address your inputs at the right platform for better future.

Why do you need to contribute ??
Excellence comes only when you learn from failures. Tomorrow will be better only if we know the mistakes of today. Unless we come forward and express what we are learning, it cannot be improved. If there is no improvement, there will be no employment.

Being a student how can you contribute ??Simply spare 5 -10min and fill your inputs about the Pharmacotherapy lectures in this survey form. We shall scrutinise, analyse and come out by addressing the flaws with valuable suggestions from experts to update ourselves.

Where is the survey form and is it validated ??

Thanking you in anticipation. Wish you all the best for you future endeavours.
