Summary
This study describes a successful coprecepting model for training new pharmacy preceptors. The active development program effectively transitioned preceptors-in-training to full preceptor roles.
Area of Science:
- Pharmacy Education
- Experiential Learning
- Healthcare Professional Development
Background:
- Preceptor development is crucial for pharmacy residency programs.
- Transitioning from resident to preceptor presents challenges for early-career practitioners.
- Existing preceptor development programs often rely on passive, didactic methods.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe an active preceptor development program in an intensive care unit setting.
- To meet the needs of both preceptors-in-training and fully qualified preceptors.
- To enhance skills in experiential education for pharmacy residents and students.
Main Methods:
- Implemented a coprecepting model focusing on active skill development.
- Utilized instructing, modeling, coaching, and facilitating techniques.
- Incorporated real-time feedback and discussion on precepting performance.
Main Results:
- The coprecepting model successfully transitioned preceptors-in-training to full preceptors.
- The program met the needs of the department, staff, and patients.
- Demonstrated a valuable tool for preceptor development.
Conclusions:
- The coprecepting model is an effective strategy for developing pharmacy preceptors.
- This active learning approach enhances preceptor competency.
- The model has potential for broader application in other institutions.

As the human population continues to grow and use resources, we must be mindful of our planet’s natural limits. Sustainable development provides a pathway to maintain and improve human life now while also ensuring that future generations will have the resources that they need. The long-term success of sustainability efforts rests on understanding the interplay between human actions and ecological systems.

Development of the Lymphatic System
2.0K
The development of lymphatic tissues and vessels in embryonic life begins around the fifth week. These structures originate from the mesoderm layer, with lymph sacs emerging from developing veins.
The first lymph sacs to form are the paired jugular lymph sacs located at the junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins. From these sacs, lymphatic capillary plexuses extend to the thorax, upper limbs, neck, and head, eventually forming lymphatic vessels. Each jugular lymph sac maintains a...

Language Development

Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...

Development of the Heart
2.1K
The development of the human heart, a crucial organ, commences from the mesoderm on the 18th or 19th day after fertilization. This process initiates in the cardiogenic area, a group of mesodermal cells at the embryo's head end, which evolves into elongated strands known as cardiogenic cords. These cords undergo a transformation to form hollow-centered endocardial tubes.
As the embryo undergoes lateral folding, these paired tubes approach each other, merging into a single primitive heart...

Development of Immunocompetence
804
The initiation of cell-mediated immunity can be observed as early as the third month of fetal growth, with active antibody-mediated immunity following approximately one month later.
The initial cells that migrate from the fetal thymus settle within the skin and epithelial tissues lining the mouth, digestive tract, and in females, the uterus and vagina. These cells, including skin-based dendritic cells, serve as antigen-presenting cells, playing a key role in T cell activation.
Subsequent T...

Fruit Development, Structure, and Function
25.0K
Fruits form from a mature flower ovary. As seeds develop from the ovules contained within, the ovary wall undergoes a series of complex changes to form fruit. In some fruits, such as soybeans, the ovary wall dries; in other fruits, such as grapes, it remains fleshy. In some cases, organs other than the ovary contribute to fruit formation; such fruits are called accessory fruits.
