Evaluation of human immunodeficiency virus curricular content in schools of pharmacy in the United States
Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..
INTRODUCTION: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an important educational topic for student pharmacists given extended patient life expectancy and expanding pharmacist roles in HIV treatment and prevention. Data are lacking in regard to curricular content and type of training received by faculty to provide didactic and experiential HIV training.
METHODS: A cross-sectional, population-based survey of United States (US) pharmacy schools was conducted using a 15-item questionnaire. HIV content experts were surveyed at 135 four-year, accredited programs.
RESULTS: Thirty-seven responses were received from schools in the Midwestern (34%), Northeastern (26%), Southern (26%), and Western (14%) regions. Time devoted to didactic HIV education ranged from 0.5 to 60 hours. The majority of respondents (78%, n = 29) reported 10 or fewer hours of HIV-related content, with 41% (n = 15) reporting five or less hours of content. Experiential practice sites for HIV training were variable, with a majority (80%) including an outpatient infectious diseases/HIV clinic. Eighty percent of respondents also reported students receiving fewer than 25 encounters with people living with HIV (PLWH) throughout their entire experiential training. Over half (54%) of respondents reported that the primary HIV instructor devoted four hours per week or less to HIV care.
CONCLUSIONS: Diversity in the amount of time devoted to HIV didactic education existed among reporting US pharmacy schools. Few schools have dedicated faculty spending a substantial amount of time in direct care of PLWH. Minimum standards for HIV education in schools of pharmacy should be established.
