Students, pharmD (2020-12-11)

The Clinical Skills Lab of the University organized this morning a laboratory session to train third-year students of the Faculty of Pharmacy (3 groups) on “ORS” ORAL REHYDRATION SOLUTION which is one of the fluid replacements that are used to prevent and treat dehydration especially resulting from diarrhea. The process includes drinking water that contains moderate amounts of sugar and salts, especially sodium and potassium, and the replacement fluid amount is calculated based on weight and dehydration unit. The arrangement and organization of these training sessions considered all the precautionary measures to combat the Corona pandemic, such as reducing the number of students for each session, and their commitment to wearing a mask in order to ensure the safety of students and workers. The second-year cohort at the Faculty of Pharmacy includes 46 students, who are divided into 4 groups, and each group is distributed into smaller groups within the laboratory, in order to maintain the implementation of precautionary measures to combat the Corona pandemic (Covid-19). The Clinical Skills Laboratory aims to train students of various medical faculties on basic skills, in all academic stages prior to the clinical stage, by using advanced dolls as fake patients and preparing scenarios for actual cases that simulate the real situation in hospitals.
