Introduction

We sought to identify challenges and possible outcomes for pharmacy schools providing accommodations on experiential rotations for students with disabilities.

Methods

A survey was developed and sent to the experiential education departments of pharmacy schools across the nation and anonymous responses were collected. Quantitative survey results were assessed using descriptive statistics, and qualitative results were assessed using thematic analysis.

Results

A total of 43 individuals who self-identified as current members of the experiential education department of their school responded to the survey. Student, preceptor, and institutional challenges and barriers were identified, and various approaches to providing accommodations for students with disabilities during experiential rotations were described.

Conclusions

Providing accommodations for students on experiential rotations remains a challenge for pharmacy programs. However, guidance for pharmacy schools on proper support of students with disabilities on experiential rotations remains limited.

美国药学院残疾学生的体验式教育住宿：一项探索性研究

介绍

我们试图确定为残疾学生提供体验轮换住宿的药学院面临的挑战和可能的结果。

方法

制定了一项调查并发送给全国药学院的体验教育部门，并收集了匿名回复。使用描述性统计评估定量调查结果，使用主题分析评估定性结果。

结果

共有 43 名自称是其学校体验教育部门现任成员的个人对调查做出了回应。确定了学生、导师和机构的挑战和障碍，并描述了在体验轮换期间为残疾学生提供住宿的各种方法。

结论

为体验轮换的学生提供住宿仍然是药学项目的挑战。然而，药学院关于在体验轮换中为残疾学生提供适当支持的指导仍然有限。
