Background

Shadowing physicians in their clinical environment is no longer permitted in the USA. The days of clinical preceptorships for pharmaceutical and other health related suppliers might also be numbered in Canada. For example, at Fraser Health, British Columbia’s biggest health authority, the days when a pharmaceutical or medical equipment sales representative could attend or observe clinical interactions with patients are now over¹. Concerns range from perceptions of conflict related to financial compensation to physicians, to intrusions on patient privacy.

Gaining insight into clinical interactions is an asset for anyone involved in education and the promotion of health care solutions. If you cannot attend the clinical interactions physically, do it virtually. This virtual preceptorship is:

  • Legal and ethical (PIPEDA)
  • Safe and comfortable
  • Easy to schedule
  • Can be viewed more than once
  • Cost-effective

The CCPE solution

A DVD-Rom-based learning experience hosted by a leading authority in medicine. It is a powerful way to:

  • Gain understanding of real-world presentations affecting physicians and their practices
  • Broaden perspective of therapeutic options and decision factors
  • Bring clinical observation to everyday discussions
  • Increase effectiveness through clinical understanding
  • Build credibility and increase access to healthcare professionals

Two titles are available in English:

Each program provides a background on the diseases state along with detailed clinical case studies highlighting patient profiles. These are accompanied by a teaching point outline, and followed up by expert commentary. It also provides participants with a better understanding of the medications and products that influence clinicians’ therapeutic decisions and will increase a pharmaceutical professional’s effectiveness through clinical understanding of the products that will benefit a clinician’s patient.
