The Preceptors' Toolkit for Working with Struggling Pharmacy Students.

Pharmacy preceptors often feel unprepared to support and manage underperforming student pharmacists in experiential education settings. Further, there is little guidance on how preceptors can best support struggling student pharmacists with mental health concerns or those requiring disability accommodations. Further, recent literature has demonstrated elevated rates of preceptor burnout when working with difficult students. Resources to address challenging experiential student pharmacist situations were gathered through a literature review and from several offices of experiential education. This toolkit aims to provide strategies and resources to support preceptors working with struggling student pharmacists, particularly those facing mental health challenges and/or those requiring accommodations.
