Teaching and Research Interests |
I have taught entry- level pharmacy courses in Social and Behavioral Aspects of Pharmaceutical Care, Communications Skills in Pharmacy Practice, and Pharmacy Practice Management. The communications skills course has been my primary teaching focus for last several years. This course has been transformed into a writing intensive course where students learn course material through the writing process. In addition, it is a practical skills acquisition course where students (in laboratory) learn both basic and advanced patient counseling/communication skills through videotaped patient counseling sessions using standardized patients. In our graduate program I teach Behavioral Pharmacy and Seminar in Social and Administrative Pharmacy. My research has focused on examining how and under what conditions empathy is learned and developed in pharmacy education and practice. Research supports the fact that empathy and other caring behaviors are largely socially mediated. Therefore, my efforts thus far have focused on examining the social and psychological factors which appear to facilitate empathic learning and development in pharmacists and pharmacy students. Most recently I have been working on developing a schema which may explain how empathy is socially learned and developed in experienced community pharmacists.
In addition to exploring empathic development in pharmacists, I have also been involved in research dealing with low health literate patients. Health literacy is the ability to read, understand and act upon health related information. Low health literacy is a major problem in the United States affecting upwards of 25% of the population. Many health disparities can be reduced or eliminated if patients are screened for health literacy. Currently I am collaborating with colleagues from both LIU and Columbia University School of Medicine examining, among other factors, the effect(s) of low literacy on treatment related decision making in minority patients with advanced prostate cancer.
