CPD Plan Management: REFLECTION: Julie Marie Ghali
In today's class I was able to lead my peers through a patient case diagnosis. As a lead, I felt that it is important for each student to state the role they prefer to undertake, as well as what they are most comfortable doing. By giving them the flexibility to choose their role, I was aiming to maximize their skill set. Also, by doing so, I was able to manage and maximize the performance. I also tried to give each team member a chance to express their thoughts and provide support, especially with peers with language barriers by helping them with their pronunciation. Overall, it felt like a safe learning space. It was good practice for what’s expected on rotations. I realized that when learning the material one on one, it's doable, yet when it's a patient case, it gets overwhelming to recall and apply the concepts as a whole. I recognize that I struggled to lead the team in a timely matter, and I may have lacked understanding of concepts to support and guide the chain of thoughts, this is mostly due to a lack of self-confidence. Also, when the students were arguing about if the thiazide should be removed or marked PRN, I wasn’t able to diffuse the argument. A second event where I lacked leadership skills, Tessalon pearls must have been discontinued, because there was no indication of cough, but I was reluctant to state my stance on the medication. From now on, I believe when I have proof of discontinuing medications I should state it with supportive arguments. Confidence is necessary when it comes to being a leader for your group, it's also needed to properly treat the patient. An interprofessional medical team, just like the patient must know they can trust your leadership as well as your diagnoses.

1. My rotation is at a Walgreens, where a patient came to the consultation window to ask when they would be eligible to take the COVID vaccine if they just contracted the virus and recently recovered from it. 2. Initially, I was concerned as no one seemed to know the answer for sure, and the patient was expecting an immediate answer. 3. Giving the final outcome, it was a positive experience as I was resourceful and offered to conduct online research to obtain the correct information. After finding discrepancies across a few online sources, I decided to call the CDC hotline to obtain the correct information and asked for it to be emailed to my preceptor. 4. I was satisfied of my actions as I was able to help a patient to the best of my abilities. 5. I learned that any pharmacist isn't expected to know all the information off the top of their head and it is not to have the answer but what's mostly important is to know how to locate the correct information and interpret it in a timely manner to provide the best centered care to the patients.

I. During the first week of my rotation, I was daily presented to a new task, and got to shadow the person in charge to get familiar with the workflow of the pharmacy. Starting the second week, I was more engaged in filling prescriptions.
II. Filling a scrip requires one to be meticulous, as an error can easily be done. Therefore, I was cautious and excessively concerned. From the moment you receive an order, pull the medication, verify the strength and NDC and fulfilling the scrip felt like a liability. Also, knowing which drug to fill in an amber card to protect from adulteration caused by light was challenging to recognize.
III. The pharmacy has machinery to help prepack the "fast movers", meaning the medications that are the most frequently dispensed. I was truly impressed at the technology behind the machinery. If too many pills are added at once, the pressure of the machine will crack the pill and cause financial losses to the facility.
IV. As an intern, I wanted to minimize my errors and show recognition for the opportunity. I understand it is a facility that needs to generate profits and most importantly, needs to meet the patient's expectation. I am slightly confused at the process behind a partial fill.
V. I am glad to have experience long term care and can recognize and appreciate how the service provided is catered to each patients needs and condition.

As I intend to direct myself towards industrial pharmacy, I was very pleased to learn about the ethics behind clinical research. The benefit of the study must serve the greater good by mitigating risks, I learned that a study must be ethical, feed into advancement, therefore must have a clear and documented purpose. No harm must be conducted, and treatment can’t be withheld from a patient for the benefit of science as seen in the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. The Belmont report is holding researchers responsible to conduct ethical research to avoid history from repeating itself. Knowing these lines of conduct, provides a good base to understand the tone behind a study. Also, having an obligatory informed consent helps protect the authenticity of the study while advocating for a veracity between the researchers and the participants.

The patient is aware that cystic fibrosis itself is a dangerous condition. Enrolling herself into a study would mean beneficence and doing justice in the name of science. Knowing the probability of a pregnancy, JL is practicing beneficence towards her fetus by refusing additional treatment that could cause harm. As a “Mature minor” she would be able to provide an informed decision. The physician practiced fidelity towards his patient by listening to her concerns and concluding that she is pregnant. However, one may argue that the physician isn’t practicing veracity towards the parents by withholding the truth.

When my father was hospitalized, and deemed vulnerable, my family and I were approached to enroll him into a clinical trial for patients with kidney failure. Treatment was explained, dialysis would have been started if needed, therefore treatment wouldn’t be withheld. As I advocate for improvement of science, I felt strongly about enrolling him. I also felt like theirs a probability to open the door to additional treatments. On the other hand, my siblings were afraid of unethical conduct and wouldn’t agree to it. Upon further review of the paperwork provided, the benefits of enrollment were not well explained, and the terms for withdrawal weren’t properly disclosed.

Our talk on pharmacogenomic was extremely informative. I originally thought it would fall under the umbrella of genetic testing, cloning and selection of the perfect baby. I understood that it’s used to screen patients and help improve their life quality by providing the right drug, for the right patient, at the right time. Simply understanding the differences, and benefits surrounding the topic and possible constrains will provide me with confidence to propagate the proper information as a health care professional but also helps me advocate for my patients’ rights.

Allowing the growth of this fairly new branch of science helps us focus on specific criteria in research, which benefits the greater good. It also serves as beneficence by saving a significant amount of money to the health care industry, reduces the use of unnecessary medication as well as unnecessary screening. However, others can argue that not having this test available to all populations is unethical and not equitable care. Therefore, an ethical constraint arises from human’s rights.

While in class, I realized that my mother used pharmacogenomics while she was pregnant with me. The prenatal cell-free fetal DNA test was suggested by her health care physician, and she was baring a child at an older age. Many friends and family expressed how she, and my father were wrong to partake in this type of testing as a fetus was formed and nothing can be done beyond a child’s conception and claimed malfeasance. They also were judged by religious family members who said it was against the faith. Yet, they argued that simply knowing if the fetus was health or not would help them prepare for their live that is about to change and mentally prepare my siblings. My parents were simply practicing their rights of autonomy and veracity not only towards themselves, but towards their two other children.

I. Description – Describe something in your academic, personal, or professional life, either big or small, that changed. The biggest change in my personal life was the passing of my father. In a short period, I faced manychanges such as my financial, living situation and responsibilities. Most importantly, the biggest change Ican’t adjust too is not having this mentorship, a to go person for advice, help, guidance and solutions.

II. Feelings – What are your feelings regarding this change (anxious, optimistic, scared, etc.)? I definitely fear any upcoming events in my life by not having the mentorship. I have anxiety around theunknown and a fear of taking wrongful decisions. I usually plan ahead, if I don’t have control of a situation,I am unable to adapt.

III. Evaluation – What is your evaluation (positive or negative) of how you handled this change? Why do you feel this way? I poorly react to change, and I am actively working on improving my approach to handle a changingsituation. I fear failure which immobilized my critical thinking.

IV. Analysis – What did you learn from how you dealt with this change? Would it have been more beneficial to be a different type of character? Why or why not? It would definitely help to be proactive instead of dwelling over a change. The faster you address achanging situation, the faster you can adapt and can find solutions to it. This also decreases the stress andanxiety level surrounding the new outcome.

V. Conclusion/action – From this experience, how would you handle a similar situation? What actions doyou plan to take when faced with such an event in the future?When faced by a drastic change, I intend to improve my proactivity. I want to focus on what is to come by forcing optimism thinking instead of centering my thought on what would have been, and what was lost.

1. Are you afraid of change? Do you think people are generally afraid of change? Explain.Yes, I am afraid of change, and it takes me a while to adapt. To a certain extent, yes, I believe most peopledo fear the unknown. Uncertainty comes with doubts, questions therefore, anxiety is easily built aroundchange.

2. What would you do if you weren’t afraid of change?I would probably advance faster and obtain multiple opportunities through exposure. Which can lead tobetter outcomes and higher chances to succeed.

3. Why do people tend to resist change?The comfort zone or security felt within a stage allows us to resist a change. The fear of failing or anyprobable negative outcome that’s not anticipated will automatically create a resistance.

4. How can you help people around you accept and embrace change?By promoting that failure isn’t something to be judged on. By accepting or helping one another andoffering a support system, it may encourage many to take a step towards the unknown. 5. How will you use what you have learned in the book to manage the current and future changes in your life?By overthinking and fixating on one idea, it will paralyze my progress. Nothing last forever thereforeconstant changes are beneficials and new opportunities are constantly presented to those seeking them.

1. My group and I have chosen opportunity six, which was a smoking cessation program for youth in a rural community. We recognize how smoking among youth is highly increasing and understand how it can lead the way to a dependance, health issue and will long term impact the community. If help is provided and accessible, it will allow a turnover in behavior. Being mindful that investing in such a program will benefit the society in lowering medical expenses.
2. My team’s dynamic to say the least was not favorable. I failed to feel the involvement of 2 partners. I took the lead and created the format of the paper, included it in a google document which was shared with the team, created a Whatsapp group chat to facilitate communications. Nonetheless, I constantly felt the need to remind them of the importance of their work. I was absolutely discouraged and incensed when I proofread some content and realized how poor the text was. The repetitive content and excessive use of word fillers decreased the quality of the work. Some paragraphs were consisting of only three sentences. The work showed no research in comparison where, I watched multiple videos to understand and use the proper lingo. Finally, one classmate and I made a Zoom call and simply rewrote some sections.
3. The biggest challenge in building the program was to decide if we were independently owned or an extension of the hospital and the services to scoop under the program. Given it was fictive, it was challenging to know if it was realistic expectations. Nonetheless, I realized how much structure goes behind a business plan and how many members must be involved to get it launched and maintain it. Additionally, I have no life experience in a rural area therefore I felt a disconnection to the reality lived.
4. While conducting the business plan, I learned that an exit plan does not automatically mean bankruptcy. It can be a plan to be acquired and an acquisition can have many models. Understanding the backbone and structure behind a company allows one to more considerate.  As an employee, I will be more aware of the areas to focus on, how to improve performance services, uptake sales while maintaining client’s growth and maintaining patients’ expectations. In the event where an issue surges, fast remediation is of essence as it will after the entire business plan.

For me, the pledge of a pharmacy student represents my academic and professional commandments. My standards as to what is expected of me and what I am agreeing too. Reading over the document, I noticed the strong similarities within the written format of our pledge and a written act or amendment.

Reciting the pledge was a long-time goal, and certainly a prideful moment. I felt optimistic as I can finally make a difference and impact people’s life in a way that matters.

I lost my father a year and a half ago and his last wishes were for me to return to school and finish what him and I started. Therefore, it was highly emotional. It made me reflect on the obstacles I overcame leading to this instant. Yet, part of me was disappointed that we recited the pledge via zoom without the presence of family members. I was hoping to share this moment with my mom, brothers, and fiancé to give them a sense of joy and reward as it is their momentous too.

Reciting the pledge gave me a sense of duty and responsibility beyond an academic success. From this point on, my engagement was more than personal motifs. I suddenly was representing the profession, and what it stands for.

I have always been honest in my encounters and am an advocate for integrity. I intend to maintain those qualities moving forward which I hope will inspire others to lead with truthful honesty. I also understand the importance of loyalty. As a loyal person, and caregiver I will serve patients to the best of my abilities solemnly for their well-being despite any personal gain.

According to the Pharmacist’s Inventory of Learning Styles (PILS) assessment, I am a producer, which is true to my character. I agree with the stated characteristics, where I avoid being the center of attention, hence why smaller groups tend to put me at ease. I always observe other people’s actions and behaviors and emit my own judgement if it is a lead to follow or seek a way to modify it to suit me best. I also need to be organized to function and get things done according to its level of priority.

Being categorized as a producer certainly fits my personality and it properly describes my actions. I am slightly surprised that I had no tie with a secondary learning style. I sense that I also hold many characteristics under the Directors category.  

I know I work best on my own. I tend to make myself a schedule, consequently, hold myself accountable for its completion. When working in team, I often feel as if I am being delayed. Also, if I am having a hard time assessing a concept, alone I can go over to understand it, but in a team, I feel like I’m holding them back, therefore I don’t express my non comprehension. As a result, the benefits of working in a team becomes null to my personal growth. I also know that for me to assess and retain material, it must be a quiet environment as I am easily distracted. I must be able to hear my self-think because I tend to recite the material to myself to help me understand it.

I would like to find a study partner, ideally with the same study habits as me, that does not procrastinate to strength my knowledge and understanding of the concepts.

In the context of this course, we were guided with proper tools to utilized when assisting our patients. I understood that the pharmacist’s role is far beyond dispensing. In fact, to better serve my community it is important to be properly informed of the resources and organizations that are available to them. I also retained tips on how to be more considerate when addressing different demographics such as the older adults, youth, the underserved and immigrants. For example, being aware of my gestures, body language as well as being informed of the different ethnicity, their customs, and devoting my attention, will allow an open and safe environment.

We also addressed the quality of service and how to it is important to accommodate and serve all fairly with the best intentions despite the level of difficulty or challenges. Learning about the diverse demography of the Worcester population and the challenges many groups experience was definitely eye opener. The information discussed during the presentations such as isolation issues, mental illness, language, and cultural barriers allowed me to have a better understanding of the people I will be there to serve when completing my rotations. It also sensitized me which increases my compassion and empathy. If I am unable to assist them, I hold myself accountable to redirect my patient to the proper specialist and make sure they are well taken care of.

The lecture on the root cause analyses impacted me the most. Learning about the steps to take to understand the depth of an issue, to resolve it permanently was awakening. This is a tool that can easily be utilized to maximize performance, as well as guide someone battling personal issues or depression. By allowing a self-reflection and asking they questions “why?” five time, a multitude of responses are divulged.

I selected the following criteria: helping people, interact with patients, applying scientific knowledge, problem solving, work schedule and income. The career suggested based on my selections are: Compounding pharmacy, Office-based med management, Academia – clinical practice, Clinical specialist, and Ambulatory care pharmacy.

I feel comfortable with those results as they represent my interests and the type of person I am. I love the idea of innovation while serving for the greater good. I also have a passion for pharmacognosy, therefore with the right position, I can link compounding and pharmacognosy while counseling my patients.  

I was slightly surprised that academia was among my results as I would of never considered teaching. However, it does make sense as I wrote that a good schedule is important for me. I also like a leading point, so teaching upcoming pharmacist can be fulfilling. 

My partner and I want to grow our family, and this forces me to be realistic. I need a work-life balance and a decent salary to provide a quality life and good opportunities to my family. Among our values, we want to be present parents therefore, academia and ambulatory care are brilliant path to consider.

At this present moment, I cannot say there’s a best match for me, as I am seriously considering all the careers suggested and when the time is right, I am sure I will pick the most rewarding one. I intend to seek rotations in the domains I’m less familiar with, simply to give myself a fair chance. I also envisioned if I obtain my degree and my partner finishes dental school, we will consider starting a medical facility, where patients can seek all medical services under one roof. I would offer medical services, dental, lab work and to dispense all the prescriptions, a pharmacy that is also equipped with the appropriate hood to compound. I have a degree in business management from my country, and I intend to put it to use in the future.

Goals (Personal & Professional): Julie Marie Ghali

I truly appreciated my experience. I was really impressed by the workflow of the pharmacy and how much work can be completed in a single day. Also, the vast scope of work available within a simple institution. I initially was interested in working within a pharmaceutical company as a consultant, because I did like the idea of working in an office setting 9 to 5, traveling, and meeting clients however, after this IPPE experience, I believe I would be open to retail and may possibly enjoy a career that is centered around patient care. I understood that I was mostly afraid of a monotone life and this site proved to me that it's all about where you work. They have a pediatric department, do IV medication, compounding, regular dispensing. They also have PharmD that are on the road and consult in nursing home for examples they do utilization review with the staff and physicians. Therefore, the scope of work I was seeking doesn't strictly exist in pharmaceutical companies, in contrary to my initial thoughts.

Goals (Personal & Professional): Julie Marie Ghali

My career goals were mostly gravitating around a position in a pharmaceutical company as a consultant which allows a certain job stability, may work from home, possibility to travel and so on. After experiencing the community IPPE rotation, I truly did enjoy the patient to physician interaction. Which I don't believe I will find within a pharmaceutical role. The feeling of helping someone, or providing them with a vaccine, of consulting them brings a purpose to all the efforts we do to accomplish a pharmacy degree. On the downside, I found the hours extremely hard to bear. I noticed how most pharmacists have 12 hours shifts, which are long days. Also, the constant standing over a long window of time isn't the most accommodating. I definitely need more professional experience in order to see which line of work would provide me with the most gratification. I enjoy my field, it's a matter of finding the best fit to how I want to practice.

Goals (Personal & Professional): Julie Marie Ghali

My interest in healthcare arose from caring for my sick parents. As I educated myself on remedies, I noticed that pharmacognosy relates to practices I used to treat specific conditions my father had. Therefore, I would certainly plan to further explore this concentration to add on current knowledges.

At this early stage in my professional journey, I chose to stay open minded and I feel optimistic as I discover new horizons. In fact, in correlation to their introductory class, many instructors have briefly presented different career pathways available in pharmacy. The following did strike my interest: nuclear pharmacy, pharmacy law, clinical research and benefits & management. I look forward to exploring those potential pathways as I intend to become an educator and am looking to reach a vast audience.

From past experiences, I noticed that a sensitized patient invests themself which emits a positive outcome. The well off in our society have access to information and can access scientific readings, and podcasts. In opposition to disfavored communities, who can benefit from a one on one patient care type of interaction. I intend to become an educator and reach a large audience.

In order to achieve my goals, I plan to use the tools available within the MCPHS community, such as webinar on public speaking. I also intend to find a mentor that can mold me. Additionally, I intend to network to explore the world outside of academia.

1. I believe that cultural sensitivity is a skill set that allows one to be aware of the diversity among people. The ability to understand and recognize the added value to someone’s opinion that is different from ours. As for cultural competence, I believe it is the ability to serve people in an appropriate way, respectfully and in dignity regardless to any differences.
2. I felt empathy for the family, and disappointment towards the health care team. I felt like Lia’s outcome could have been different if the physicians had understood and used cultural sensitivity sooner in the treatment.
3. I learned that all fields seem to unify the learnings around patient care treatment and how to be responsive to variances. Knowing that diversity hosts innovation, creativity and is high in value, its positive that tomorrow’s health care provides are learning common grounds to acknowledge the importance to practice without prejudice.
4. The biggest advantage would be an adherent patient. If they feel comfortable, respected, and heard, they will certainly be an active patient, which will lead us to our treatment goals. In my opinion, no better reward can be offered to a physician than an adherent patient.
5. As a health care provider, I intent to always be noble and respect all people. I will ask questions when appropriate to further educate myself and offer a treatment that is centered around the patients needs and principles. I also intend to sensibilize any future colleagues and will advocate for the patients’ rights.

Interprofessional Education (IPE): Julie Marie Ghali

The Roles Inventory checklist allowed me to realize many facts pertaining to the entry level responsibilities of other professions. For example, I was not aware that Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (DMS) can administer medication in some state. I was under the impression they are simply entitled to perform their imaging examination. Regarding my own profession, I was unaware that pharmacists are limited to verifying patient identification and that the requested examination should correlate with the symptoms and clinical history of the patient.

 

I am highly impressed that DMS are given this right and wonder what makes it limited to some states. As for the pharmacist’s limitation, I am slightly disappointed giving our trainings around patient care and drug therapy. I do feel like pharmacists are doctors on a bench and should be involved in an extended role.

 

I had a positive learning experience and enjoyed knowing that the future healthcare providers are being trained to work hand in hand and not as rivals. It is also nice to know what the roles and limitations are of “sister profession”. This experience was humbling and gratifying. In my group, we all shared why we chose our profession and how we intend to impact our communities.

 

I believe fewer medical errors will occur from an interprofessional team care. Also, when caregivers work as a team, the patient is well centered and receives coherent indications. A united front will result in a better outcome.

 

I intend to undertake all the necessary routes to adhere to my patient and make sure they are impacted by the care and treatment proved. Meaning, if they are interested in a natural care, I would not hesitate to involve a colleague from the acupuncture field. As a united team, we dedicate ourselves to better the health of all.
