Learn essential research principles and practical pearls to improve evidence-based care in pharmacy practice. Overcome barriers and enhance your role as a clinician and quality improvement specialist.
About this course
A recent survey demonstrated that <20% of pharmacists surveyed participated in research. However, direct experience with this process is vital for clinicians in the provision of evidence-based care. Furthermore, many principles of this method are required for pharmacists in all settings in that quality improvement is a core job function of many pharmacists. Practical pearls to make the process more user-friendly, efficient, and productive can reduce barriers to this important activity. This activity includes their direct application to pharmacist’s daily practice as well as providing general knowledge and review. Discussion of common barriers and strategies to overcome them are included.

I am always interested in continuing education in the areas of health, wellness, nutrition and mental health. Your course was well written, well organized and helpful in meeting state licensure requirements.
Very well written, easy to digest, time efficient, and straight to the point. Thank you!
I appreciate the convenience of the course being online and accessible through my phone and that it directly reports to CEBroker to support mandated education requirements.
I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
I am always looking for concise ,thorough, and up to date continuing education, and this course provided exactly what I was looking for. Thank you
Enjoyed this course! It squarely met my license renewal requirement as a physician. It was well-written, and an altogether enjoyable read.
