Waterloo School of Pharmacy students visit local elementary schools for Pharmacy Appreciation Month
Every March since 2016, students from Waterloo’s School of Pharmacy have been volunteering and visiting Region of Waterloo schools to educate the younger generation on what pharmacists do during Pharmacy Appreciation Month (PAM).
Waterloo Pharmacy student members of the Canadian Association of Pharmacy Students and Interns (CAPSI) travelled to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to attend Professional Development Week (PDW) this past January.
PDW is an annual conference that gathers CAPSI members across Canada. Students participate in competitions, attend speaker panels and connect and network with other pharmacy students across the country. After three years of virtual events the students were able to attend the conference in person again this year.
Waterloo pharmacy students Victoria Mikhnovskaya (Rx2024) and Bhawani Jain (Rx2024), the 2023 co-PAM chairs, discuss Pharmacy Appreciation Month on CTV News Kitchener.
