HOSPITAL INTERNSHIP

As to what I have said in my last blog, we have internships that should be completed and one of it is the Hospital Internship. Pharmacy is one of the services that being offered in the Hospital for it provides different medication for the patients. It is the main source of medication in the hospital. It consists of a Chief Pharmacist, Pharmacists and Pharmacist Assistants. Our school sent us into 3 hospitals, the Riverside Hospital, Corazon Locsin Montelibano Memorial Hospital and Bacolod Adventist  Medical Center. It depends on us in what Hospital we would like to have our duty and I chose BAMC. 

For me, Bacolod Adventist Medical Center is one of the best hospital in Bacolod City. It provides different services not only for the benefit of the health of the patients but also for its spiritually oriented care. We are only 18 students who are bound to have the internship in BAMC and it's a great privilege for me to be part of that alma mater.

INTERNSHIP

Our Course was obliged to have a 960 hours of internship including 200 hours for Community Internship, 200hours for Hospital Internship, 200 hours for Manufacturing Internship and 360 hours for the Specialization :-)

Our School sent us into different pharmacies, hospitals and manufacturing industries for our Internship. I was able to have my Internship in the said areas and it really helps me to become more knowledgeable and be aware of the certain circumstances and scenarios that happens in the Pharmacy World. 

COMMUNITY PHARMACY

I had my Community Pharmacy Internship at Grace Pharmacy Bacolod City Branch 8. My Pharmacist is Ms. Norlyn Sipole and she was able to impart enough knowledge in the community pharmacy. She taught me different counselling styles. I was able to encounter patients also in the pharmacy.

HOSPITAL INTERNSHIP

I had my Hospital Internship at Bacolod Adventist Medical Center. I had encountered there a serious type of patients who are all hospital based. I was able to dispensed different medications which are not common in community Pharmacy. Vials, Dextrose, Toxoids, are dispensed. Being a Hospital Intern is not easy for we have to adjust our time especially forour night duties. We have to work at around 10pm up to 6am, or so-called graveyard shift.

MANUFACTURING PHARMACY

Our Manufacturing Pharmacy Internship is the most memorable. Pascual Laboratories, Inc is one of the best Manufacturing Industry in the Philippines. 20 students were chosen to be an intern of the said industry and I'm one of them. It was very a good opportunity for us because we are really able to introduced in the different zones in the Manufacturing Firm. We had our random rotations in every departments. It was a great privileged to produce different products from Pascual Lab.

UNO-R's BS Pharmacy Pioneering Batch

BS Pharmacy is my Course. I know your first impression with my course is kinda cheap for you can see pharmacists as sales lady, cashiers and just only dispensing medications. In Fact you are wrong for we carry a high risks for your medications. There is only one pharmacist in every pharmacy. The other employees were just Pharmacy assistants who has a degree of vocational courses or business courses without board examinations. 

There are many schools who offers BS Pharmacy in the Philippines including University of Santo Tomas, University of the Philippines-Diliman, Centro Escolar University, SouthWestern University-Cebu, Our Lady Of Fatima College, Manila Central University, University of San Agustin-Iloilo, and a lot more.

In Negros Occidental, the first University that offers BS Pharmacy course is the University of Negros Occidental Recoletos. I am included to the pioneering batch of the University and I know the pressure is on us. I'm in my 4th year in the said course and I one step closer to real world.
