The Final Year B.Pharm students at MET Institute of Pharmacy (Degree) had an enriching field visit to Lilavati Hospital on 8th and 9th October 2024, where they gained hands-on insights into the hospital’s pharmacy and Central Sterile Supply Department (CSSD).
This visit was more than an educational journey; it was a transformative experience that highlighted the pivotal role pharmacists play in healthcare. Exploring the intricate processes of the hospital pharmacy and CSSD brought classroom learning to life. From the vibrant color-coded labeling system to the meticulous management of emergency medications and secure handling of high-risk drugs, the responsibilities of a pharmacist became crystal clear.
The experience underscored the importance of teamwork in patient care, as pharmacists collaborate closely with healthcare professionals to ensure the safe and effective use of medications. MET’s dedication to offering real-world learning experiences continues to shape us into skilled professionals, ready to make a meaningful impact on patient safety and wellness. With each visit, we are one step closer to becoming leaders in the field of pharmacy.
