The purpose of this Health Policy Study is to better understand adolescents’ views on what are considered core components of the medical home and identify barriers to promoting adolescent health in relation to the medical home.
In addition, this study sought to better understand the needs and challenges in providing adolescents with access to medical homes—from the perspective of both adolescents and experts in adolescent health and medical home policy. To accomplish these goals, researchers conducted focus groups with adolescents, presented these findings to experts, and gathered experts’ reactions to the adolescents’ perspectives. This report includes a detailed description of the methods used for this study, followed by a summary of key focus group findings and the expert reactions to these findings.

COMMUNITY PHARMACY
Engaging Students in Wellness and Disease Prevention Services
Audra S. Anderson, PharmD* and Jean-Venable R. Goode, PharmD
School of Pharmacy, Virginia Commonwealth University
Pharmacy education has traditionally focused on medications and treatment of disease. However, as an
accessible health care professional, pharmacists can influence healthy behaviors in their patients. En-
couraging/promoting healthier lifestyles in the United States is essential because the leading causes of
mortality are tobacco use, poor nutrition, and inactivity. In order to prepare pharmacists for this role,
student pharmacists must be taught how to implement and deliver wellness and prevention services.
Community advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPEs) occur at an ideal point in the curriculum
to engage students in these activities. This article provides preceptors with guidance and tools for
restructuring the community APPE at their sites to incorporate wellness and disease prevention activities.

INTRODUCTION
Much of the morbidity and mortality associated with
chronic disease in the United States could be prevented
though lifestyle and behavioral changes. Although the
leading causes of death in the United States are heart
disease and cancer, the actual leading causes of mortality
are tobacco use, poor nutrition, and inactivity.1 Tradition-
ally, pharmacy education has focused on medications and
the treatment of disease. However, as accessible health-
care professionals, pharmacists are in an ideal position to
make an impact on patients’ behaviors. Furthermore,
pharmacists have been identified as key healthcare pro-
fessionals to help the nation meet the goals of Healthy
People 2010.
2-4 Healthy People 2010 is a document re-
flecting the nation’s health goals for reducing significant
preventable threats to public health. There are 2 overarch-
ing goals, which are to increase the quality and years of
life of Americans and to eliminate health disparities.2 In
order to accomplish these goals, as a profession, pharma-
cists will need to be prepared to deliver wellness and
disease prevention services.
The Center for Advancement of Pharmaceutical Ed-
ucation (CAPE) recently revised the educational out-
comes for colleges and schools of pharmacy.
5 The
advisory panel identified public health as a major area
for improvement and expansion in pharmacy education,
including teaching students strategies for promoting
health improvement, wellness, and disease prevention
to patients, communities, and at-risk populations, in col-
laboration with other health care providers. Community
advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPE’s) are
ideal areas of the curriculum for offering these learning
experiences for students. Therefore, preceptors may need
to restructure APPE learning activities to provide oppor-
tunities for students to ...

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
