Precept2Practice: Club “J” – Making Journal Clubs Fun and Effective

Think journal clubs are a heavy lift? That they can’t be done in a small pharmacy environment? Worried that you don’t have enough statistical savvy? Listen to this episode and you’ll discover how journal clubs can be incorporated into just about any setting with some simple strategies. The value they bring is immense – NAPLEX preparation for graduating students, expanded clinical knowledge for the learner and staff, the development of confidence and communication skills in your students and residents, and much more.

In this episode, I talked with Dr. Valerie Coppenrath, a drug information guru and preceptor for both residents and students. She shares some background on the concept, and also provides us with some practical strategies for taking a more intentional approach to supporting our students and residents in their own professional identity journey. And who knows, maybe we’ll learn a little about ourselves along the way as well.

Upon successful completion of this course, learners should be able to:
1. Discuss the advantages and challenges with conducting a journal club in a range of pharmacy settings.
2. List strategies for effective journal club selection.
3. Describe strategies for overcoming barriers associated with setting up a successful journal club.
