The Impact of Pharmacy Student Participation in the White Coat Ceremony on Professionalization.

Abstract:

:Objective. To assess the impact of participation in a formal white coat ceremony on Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) students' professionalization by analyzing students' reflective writing. Methods. First-year PharmD students participated in the college's white coat ceremony following orientation. During the Foundations of Pharmacy course in the first semester, students were instructed to reflect on and write about the impact the white coat ceremony had on them as a graded assignment. A grading rubric was developed to standardize assessment of the reflections and to differentiate critical reflection (which cites future behavioral change) from other forms of reflection that are less impactful, such as non-critical reflection, general understanding, and non-reflection. Thematic analysis was conducted and prevalent themes were identified. Each reflection was then reviewed to identify up to three themes. Results. Of the 225 students in the incoming class of 2020, 218 submitted valid reflection assignments. Of these, 92% met critical reflection criteria. Four percent offered "negative connotation," while 75% described an eye-opening experience or realization. Of 483 thematic classifications, six student professionalization themes were identified, as follows: personal achievement (26%), professionalism (21%), welcome to pharmacy (18%), patient care (16.8%), life-long learning (12.8%), and code of ethics (5.2%). Conclusion. For the majority of PharmD students, the white coat ceremony held during first-year orientation had a positive impact on their professionalization. All pharmacy schools should conduct a white coat ceremony that includes recitation of the Pledge of Professionalism as an impactful first step toward student professionalization.
