ABSTRACT
Neuropsychiatric disorders are among the most represented disorders in the 2013 revision of the Model Core Curriculum for Pharmaceutical Education in Japan. However, it is reported that many pharmacy students have a negative impression of neuropsychiatric disorders because they do not know how to interact with psychiatric patients. To deepen students' understanding of pharmacotherapy for psychiatric disorders, Chiba University Hospital provides a one-day psychiatric clinical practicum in which pharmacy students perform a pharmaceutical intervention. In this practicum, students first had a group discussion about the case, assessed the pharmaceutical problem, and considered pharmacotherapy solutions to the problem on their own. Then, the students interviewed the patients directly to collect pharmaceutical-related information. Finally, the students participated in a conference and presented their own pharmacotherapy solutions to the problem. In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey and assessed the students' reports in order to investigate their satisfaction with the practicum, changes in their impression of psychiatric disorders or patients with psychiatric disorders, and the level of knowledge they attained. The results showed that almost all students were satisfied with the practicum. The students' impression of psychiatric disorders or patients with psychiatric disorders changed in a positive direction. It seems that students came to realize the role and responsibility of the pharmacist in medical teams. These findings suggest that the practicum led to a positive change in the students' impression of psychiatric patients through conversations with the patients, assessment of pharmacotherapy from a pharmaceutical point of view, and proposing prescriptions.
