For you guys in APhA-ASP at an established program, I have a question. Does your school participate in Operation Heart/Operation Diabetes,etc?
Being that we just opened up our chapter here at Touro NY, and we have nothing happening ATM, I wanna spearhead one of these programs but I have no idea where/how to start (already looked at the APhA website, found some materials and whatnot to use at the events).
What I'm trying to figure out if these are merely programs that work in a "Health Fair" setting once a month or so, or if I can integrate these programs into the IPPEs/APPEs getting my old preceptors, doctors I worked with, etc involved?
So for example if I wanna spearhead Operation Diabetes. After getting through all the paperwork and whatnot, I contact my preceptors at North Shore Hospital, CVS Pharmacy, NYC Department of Health, etc and set up a program where basically every student that goes to that site also participates in that program, collecting data and whatnot?
