Lucy Davis
My name is Lucy Davis, and I am currently a First Professional Year (P1) student at the University of Findlay's College of Pharmacy. I have a bachelor's degree in Human Biology from Ohio University, where I graduated a semester early in December 2022. I work as a pharmacy intern at a hospital, where I previously gained experience as a certified pharmacy technician for a year. These roles have allowed me to develop a strong foundation in hospital pharmacy operations, patient care, and medication management. I am passionate about building on this experience and applying my knowledge to positively impact patients' lives.I am particularly interested in pursuing a career in a hospital setting, with a growing curiosity about veterinary pharmacy.

Develop Experience with OTC Medication Recommendations
I will provide recommendations for at least three over-the-counter (OTC) medications to patients, under the supervision of a preceptor, to build my confidence in advising patients in a community pharmacy setting. This will allow me to gain hands-on experience in an area I have not encountered in my hospital work.
Learn the Workflow of Community Pharmacy Operations
Since I have only worked in a hospital setting, I will familiarize myself with community pharmacy operations by observing and participating in at least three key processes, such as prescription filling, patient interactions, and insurance claims processing. This will help me gain a well-rounded understanding of the differences between hospital and community pharmacy workflows.
