Shenandoah University School of Pharmacy and Project HOPE - Year 4!!

Welcome back to the RxProjectHOPE blog for year 4.  We are very excited to continue the wonderful partnership with SU SOP and Project HOPE for our fourth year pharmacy students (P4s).  For 2012, we will be sending four P4 students on an advanced pharmacy practice experience (APPE) aboard the USNS Mercy with the Pacific Partnership 2012!

Kofi Kyei-Mensah and Alexis Hargbol will be leaving on May 21st to join the USNS Mercy in Guam.  We're happy to report that for the first time a Shenandoah University alumni, Dr. Zara Risoldi Cochrane (class of 2008), will serve as the preceptor for Kofi and Alexis' experience! Kofi, Alexis and Dr. Risoldi Cochrane will be providing medical outreach to the communities of Indonesia and Philippines through the end of June.

Dayna Drobny and Brittany Stewart will replace the first group on the USNS Mercy in Philippines, along with their preceptor, Dr. Ravipal Singh.  Dayna, Brittany and Dr. Singh will be providing care to the individuals of Vietnam and Cambodia through August.

Please visit the blog often to read about the life-changing experiences of the students and preceptors aboard the USNS Mercy.
