Features include: “OSHU Chapstick Outreach”
This is the second year that pharmacy students bring a compounding lab to inner city schools. The event is designed
to educate middle school students on a number of different aspects of pharmacy.
Naomi Lam has taken the lead on coordinating the event. With the hard work of many volunteers, we have received positive reviews concerning our outreaches. The compounding lab is followed by a question and answer section – which allows middle school students to ask questions about the health care professions and OHSU. Sometimes middle school students ask questions about being a doctor, dentist, nurse or scientist. We soon realize that we should invite students from other fields to talk about their perspectives in the world of healthcare. Therefore, through funding from the OHSU student council, we started inviting students from other disciplines to promote their profession.
