043070

PhPr807 is a 2-unit required course that focuses on key population and preventive health concepts and foundational knowledge from a pharmacy perspective. This course introduces the influence of social determinants of health on health, and to selected tools of disease control and health promotion including interventions such as vaccinations, screening, counseling and education. The intent of this course is to familiarize pharmacy students with the concept of public health, major community health issues and needs, and the importance of health promotion and disease prevention concepts, theories, and services. Public and preventative health are more than treating disease; they address the health of communities and populations and how to ensure that communities and populations are healthy.
