Fourth-year Student Pharmacists’ Perceptions of a Required Student-run Free Clinic Experience

A clinical experience at a student-run free clinic can allow P4s to practice multiple skills that align with the Curricular Outcomes and Entrustable Professional Activities. After this experience, P4s felt more comfortable working with underserved populations and collaborating on interprofessional teams and reported being more likely to volunteer at a free medical clinic. We encourage pharmacy programs affiliated with a student-run free clinic to consider implementing a required clinical experience for P4 students.
