Shenandoah University School of Pharmacy and Project HOPE – we’re ba-ack (and better than ever)!

Welcome back! After a year off, we’re excited to be partnering with Project HOPE again for our 6^th year of the unique, life-changing advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPE) to help the international community!  This year we will be sending six (6) fourth year pharmacy students (P4s) on the Continuing Promise 2015 with the USNS Comfort. 

The adventure starts very soon…  from May 28^th to June 27^th, P4 students Alyson Dunlavey and Aquisi Harris, along with preceptor Lance Sateren, will be sailing to Panama and El Salvador.  Following Alyson and Aquisi, Heather Heskett and Emily Hesse with preceptor Earl Rogers, will be joining the USNS Comfort to assist in Columbia and the Dominica from July 5^th to August 8^th. Our final group will be from August 14^th to September 10^th.  Amanda Shifflet and Ryan Garner, along with preceptor Bill Strein, will be visiting the Dominican Republic and Honduras.

We wish our P4 students and preceptors an adventure of a lifetime on the Continuing Promise 2015 with their Project HOPE APPE!  A special thank you for our partners at Project HOPE for making this possible, and to Ms. Nichole Clinedinst, Winchester Experiential Coordinator, for all her time and effort to make the rotations a reality for our students!
