It is with great sadness that I write my final post to you all, as our Thailand APPE has quickly come to an end. This rotation has taught me so much; I was thoroughly able to learn about Thailand's health care system which allowed me to reflect and compare it to ours in the United States. This APPE also allowed me to immerse myself in a third world country and learn much about a different culture-- both unique experiences that will allow me to become a better future pharmacist. While I believe a strong foundational education is important, I think it is equally as important for future health care providers to seek opportunities to implement and gather knowledge outside of the classroom, let alone internationally. I would recommend this APPE to any student interested in becoming a more understanding and empathetic health care provider because Thailand has absolutely provided all of us with an eye-opening, yet fun experience that we will never forget :)
Thanks for reading!
