School of Pharmacy Vision:
Our Vision recognizes Belmont University School of Pharmacy faculty and staff responsibilities to the discipline of pharmacy, to the health of our communities, and to Belmont University.
To become a nationally-recognized practice and leadership center in pharmacy education, scholarship, patient-centric care and service. We see ourselves as a prominent resource for training and supporting competent, compassionate practitioners with a passion for life-long professional improvement and service to the profession and patients.
School of Pharmacy Structure
Fulfilling the School of Pharmacy mission and vision requires a solid philosophical foundation upon which are placed clear, mission-relevant goals. Belmont University School of Pharmacy faculty and staff have established four fundamental service pillars and associated goals to guide all aspects of the Belmont University School of Pharmacy:
- Management: Successful pharmacists require more than a base in the art and science of pharmacy; long-term career success and responsible patient care requires in-depth training in the art and science of management. This is one of the profession's greatest needs.
- Informatics: Information systems pervade all aspects of health care delivery; career competence requires an ability to use and develop systems that integrate and extend current and emerging technologies.
- Pharmacotherapy: Contemporary health care is a team-based, complex enterprise; professional effectiveness requires knowledge of and experience collaborating with multiple health care partners to navigate the complexity of the health care system. This ensures that all patients receive exceptional care.
- Missions: Pharmacy is about serving others and what distinguishes fully-developed pharmacists is the extent to which concern for others and a commitment to service infuses all aspects of the pharmacist's life. Leadership in the profession and community requires understanding of and a commitment to health care access and equity for underserved populations.
