Area of Science:

Pharmacy Education
Health Equity
Social Determinants of Health

Background:

Pharmacy education must equip students to address health disparities.
There is a need for effective models to train pharmacy students in caring for underserved populations.
Identifying and disseminating best practices is crucial for advancing pharmaceutical care.

Purpose of the Study:

To identify and describe exemplary educational approaches for teaching pharmacy students about the awareness, knowledge, and skills required to serve underserved populations.
To provide adaptable models for pharmacy schools to integrate into their curricula.
To highlight successful strategies in pharmacy education focused on health equity.

Main Methods:

A call for exemplars was issued by the AACP Task Force on Caring for the Underserved.
A subcommittee reviewed submitted applications.
Three distinct exemplars (didactic, experiential, international) were selected based on their effectiveness in teaching relevant awareness, attitudes, knowledge, and skills.

Main Results:

Three highly effective exemplars for educating pharmacy students on serving the underserved were identified and detailed.
The selected exemplars represent diverse educational modalities: one didactic, one experiential, and one international experience.
These exemplars demonstrate successful methods for cultivating awareness, knowledge, and skills in students.

Conclusions:

The identified exemplars serve as valuable models for pharmacy institutions seeking to enhance their curricula for serving underserved communities.
These adaptable programs can be tailored to meet specific institutional needs and educational objectives.
Implementing these models can contribute to a more equitable and effective healthcare system by better preparing future pharmacists.
