Two Is Better Than One: Clinical Assessments

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Developing patient clinical assessments has evolved historically. It is an important skillset for all health care professionals to address the most appropriate treatment options for patients while collaborating with the interdisciplinary team. Implementing pharmacy and medical student collaborations can help pave the way in assessing patients in hospital and ambulatory care settings. Medical students' proper diagnosis and pharmacy students' medical recommendations can potentially reduce medical errors. Ultimately, interdisciplinary collaboration enhances clinical assessments, promotes evidence-based medicine, optimizes treatment regimens and monitoring, and improves overall health-related outcomes.
