For more than 15 years Theresa Schindel has largely focused on developing continuing education for pharmacists, particularly in the area of practice change and the adoption of direct patient care roles.
In her current role as Associate Dean at the Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Alberta, she has decided to pursue a doctoral research degree program to gain more experience with qualitative research methods. The Wellspring Leadership Award grant will support a study she is conducting that will examine pharmacists’ experience with practice change in the area of prescribing.
