rotations!
Very important to network with the pharmacists and
technicians at the IPPE hospital site!
Be professional in all your interactions.
Be engaged, motivated, and willing to learn during
your IPPE block – these are typically the top ranking
characteristics that preceptors want in students.
If you display a negative attitude, unmotivated, or
aren’t interested in learning during IPPE, then
preceptors won’t want you back for P4 rotations.
