As part of the diverse pharmacy practice experiences offered by UTCOP, 27 students had the opportunity to participate in one of several different government rotations. The program began in 2005 and has since expanded to include more sites. Student pharmacists travel across the United States to provide patient care as part of the Indian Health Service (IHS) program in Arizona and Wyoming , the United States Air Force in Alaska, and the United States Army in Kentucky. While on rotation, students learn about government-based pharmacy practice and the culture of the patients they serve. This year one of our newly graduated PharmD students, Keysha Ray, matched for a residency at Sells Indian Hospital in Arizona as a direct result of her previous advanced pharmacy practice experience there.
