Campbell Comments For Alumni, Students & Friends of Campbell University College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences

The College ends 25th anniversary year with gala celebration Inside this Issue Message from the Dean College News Faculty News Donor Profile Alumni News Message from the Alumni Association President Class Notes Upcoming Events

A toast to 25 years - The College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences concluded a year of celebration with a 25th Anniversary Gala on April 28 at Artspace in Raleigh. More than 200 alumni, faculty, staff, students and friends attended the milestone event to honor the College’s history and dance the night away.

DEAN’S MESSAGE

As our 25th anniversary year comes to a close, I am reminiscent of the past quarter century. It’s been a good 25 years, for a large part because of the wonderful people at this College. It has, and continues to be, a blessing in my life to work with each of you.

During the 25th Anniversary Gala this past April, the Alumni Association recognized me, and my wife, Suzan, for our service to the College.

We were deeply honored, humbled and moved. I thank you for the recognition, but more than that, I thank you for your friendship, your camaraderie and the opportunity to develop this program.

Furthermore, I share the College’s tremendous success with the many faculty, staff, students, parents, alumni and donors who have believed and supported Campbell University’s pharmacy program over the years.

I recently told our 23rd graduating class in May that their names will always be associated with this institution. I believe our graduates leave a huge mark on the success of Campbell’s pharmacy and health science programs. As each of you have entered your career, you carried with you the Campbell brand, and I believe you’ve held up your end of the bargain, maintaining the tradition of excellence in your jobs, your profession, and even your personal triumphs. Thank you for being a part of our success.

This summer we are preparing for the arrival of our inaugural public health class and continuing our planning efforts for the new physical therapy program. New faculty and staff are currently being hired for both programs, and we will continue to announce their appointments.

I am excited about the opportunities to develop these programs and fill the vacancy needs of both professions. I received the fall 2011 Allied Health Job Vacancy Tracking Report in May, completed in collaboration with the Council for Allied Health in North Carolina and the North Carolina AHEC Program. This is a vacancy report that tracks ten allied health professions across the state. In the report, physical therapist vacancies accounted for the largest share (17%) of total vacancies, and demand was found statewide.

We are continuing to focus on developing an interprofessional education program at Campbell University, so all of our health care students will train together and learn to work as part of the health care team. The addition of our public health and physical therapy students will add two more professions to our training with the hope of providing better patient care in the future.

And finally, in closing, as I charged our 2012 graduates, I want to encourage all of you to do the same, to move forward in your careers with humility, discipline and teamwork. Humility always puts the patient first in all that you do.

Discipline is vital to complete the tasks ahead of you with success. And teamwork is critical for the future of health care, and I encourage you to always be a team player.

I look forward to hearing about your many, many future accomplishments. And again, thank you very much for the recognition at the gala.

Sincerely,

Ronald W. Maddox, PharmD Vice President for Health Programs Dean, College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences

Honoring the College’s founding dean

D

uring the 25th Anniversary Gala , the Alumni Association honored Dean Maddox and his wife Suzan for their dedication and service to the College over the past 25 years. Serving as founding dean, Dr. Maddox and his family relocated from Atlanta to Buies Creek in 1985 to start the new program.

“Tonight my first recognition is actually for you, Mrs. Maddox, with a special gift. It is a watercolor of the house that you helped build,” said Alumni Association Past President Steve Kearney, PharmD ’94, as he presented Mrs. Maddox with a painting of Maddox Hall.

Kearney thanked Dean Maddox for his committed leadership to Campbell’s pharmacy program. “For someone to step out of their comfort zone and come to Buies Creek, and to have a tremendous vision of what the future of health care should look like, that has to be someone who is invested,” Kearney said. “Not only that, but it has to be someone who has a vision that most can’t see.”

As the College prepares to step into the next 25 years, Kearney spoke about the vision for the future. “Most everyone I talk to, when they’re talking about the future of health care, envision every primary care provider working together to benefit the patient. And again, who is there with that vision at Campbell leading us forward…Dean Maddox,” Kearney said. He presented Dr. Maddox a commemorative bowl from the Alumni Association.

“I thank you for the recognition, but more than that, I thank you for your friendship,” said Dean Maddox. “It has been a blessing in my life to have the opportunity to work with each of you and to develop this program. It’s been a great 25 years.”

CPHS holds 23rd graduation ceremony

FACULTY SHORTS Richard Drew, PharmD, professor of pharmacy practice, received the D.P. Russ, Jr. and Walter S. Jones, Sr. Alumni Award for Research Excellence during Campbell University’s Senior & Faculty Awards Banquet on April 25.

Ted Hancock, PharmD, assistant professor of pharmacy practice, was recently named chronic care pharmacist of the year by the North Carolina Association of Pharmacists.

C

ampbell University’s College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences conferred more than 150 degrees on May 11, during the institution’s 23rd graduation ceremony at the John W. Pope, Jr. Convocation Center.

Dr. Bill Atkinson, WakeMed CEO and president, delivered the graduation address. He spoke of the controversial issues around health care reform, and that change needs to start with health care professionals.

“Let me suggest that your responsibility will go beyond even those people whose lives you touch directly,” Atkinson said. “Because the skills you learned are skills that are needed in America today to treat another sick patient. That patient is our nation’s health care system.”

Atkinson believes pharmacists and all other health care professionals must find ways to educate people about steps they can take to stay healthy. He urged graduates to be a part of this solution.

“As health care professionals, you live it. In the end, whatever change comes, making it work will be up to you and me and all health care professionals,” he said.

Atkinson has led the direction of WakeMed Health and Hospitals since 2003. Wakemed is the largest private employer in Wake County and one of the largest health care systems in North Carolina.

Andrew Muzyk, PharmD, assistant professor of pharmacy practice, received the 2012 Association for Academic Psychiatry Psychiatric Education Award for his part in creating an interactive course for the Duke University psychiatry residency program.

Beth Sutton, PhD, assistant professor of clinical research, was recognized by Dean Ronald Maddox with the 2012 Dean’s Award for Excellence in Teaching at Campbell University’s Senior & Faculty Awards Banquet on April 25.

Class gift provides computers for future students During the College’s graduation ceremony in May, the pharmacy class of 2012 announced its parting gift to the institution, $10,000 to update the computer lab in Maddox Hall.

“Our class felt that it was important to give back to the College because of all we have gained over the last four years, both personally and professionally,” said Class Vice President Brock Bumpass, who is heading to Boston to complete a two-year medical affairs fellowship at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.

“We chose to renovate the computer lab in Maddox Hall to provide a gift that would be functional and beneficial to a vast number of future CPHS students,” said Class President Brandon Hey. He currently serves as a captain in the United States Air Force.

CPHS is very thankful for the gift and opportunity to train the pharmacy class of 2012, congratulations and best wishes to all of you.

PA Program hosts health day at Buies Creek Elementary School

Getting a leg up on the competition - H-PREP participants visit with current students to learn more about Campbell’s health care programs.

Three-day program prepares students applying for advanced health care degrees Fifty-eight college students, from universities across the state and local region, arrived on May 17 to Campbell University’s 7th annual Healthcare Professionals Readiness & Enrichment Program (H-PREP), a three-day preparatory event designed to help students become stronger applicants for advanced degrees in health care.

The program is geared toward financially disadvantaged and under-represented minority students who are highly qualified in the field of health sciences.

“Participants have tremendous exposure and quality time with faculty, staff and current students, helping them become better prepared for their steps on the road ahead.” said Kim Dunn, director of admissions and student affairs at CPHS. Participants stayed on-campus for the three-day event, attending a full-schedule of activities including standardized test workshops and professional development seminars.

“I think H-PREP will make me a better applicant because I will know how to study for the GRE…and how to improve my weaknesses,” said Chandni Bhalodia of Raleigh, who is a rising senior at NC State. She came to H-PREP to get a better perspective on what Campbell has to offer, and learn about the requirements for the PA Program.

Pinehurst native Amanda D’Ostroph is planning to take the PCAT exam in June, “I think this will really give me direction with how I want to review for the test.”

D’Ostroph will be a senior this fall at Charleston Southern University in Charleston, S.C. She’s heard a lot of great things about Campbell’s pharmacy program and knew that H-PREP would allow her to meet current students and faculty. “I will be applying to Campbell this fall,” she said. “So I thought I might as well get to know the people since I’m hoping to be around in the future.”

Students and faculty from Campbell University’s PA Program spent the day at Buies Creek Elementary on May 3 to show fourth and fifth graders how to get enough physical activity and stay healthy.

“Being the inaugural PA class, we felt that it was imperative for us to do something within our community to promote healthy living,” said Charmeen Mack, first-year PA student who was the lead organizer for the health day event.

PA students organized an interactive health fair to teach the children about nutrition, dental and personal hygiene, and how to say no to peer pressure. A field day was simultaneously held outside where elementary students actively participated in zumba, self-defense lessons, relay races and stretching.

“Knowing the kids took away so much knowledge from that day is what makes the event a success,” Mack said. “They were all so excited and pumped for the field day. We also held a pep rally the day before the event to get the kids excited about the health day. We had Gaylord the Camel come to surprise them and that was the icing on the cake.”

FACULTY

Get App-y Faculty members create app to screen patients for medication adherence issues Need a simple way to find out if your patients are properly taking their medications? There’s an app for that. And it was created by Campbell University faculty members Penny Shelton, PharmD, and Ted Hancock, PharmD. The idea started back in 2005. Shelton was working as a consultant for a medication adherence project with the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists (ASCP) and the American Society on Aging.

She was developing a tool to identify and assess senior patients who fail to take their medications as prescribed by their doctors.

According to the project, if medication non-adherence were a disease, it could be termed an epidemic. It is estimated that medication non-adherence results in 125,000 deaths annually, and costs the US health care system $100 billion per year. Of all age groups, older adults with chronic diseases and conditions are most at risk.

Around that same time, Shelton was also consulting senior patients at an assisted living facility. In her practice, she was looking for something to assess medication use from an adherence standpoint, but she couldn’t find a tool that was as comprehensive as she needed it to be. So she decided to create her own instrument, the Medication Adherence Individual Review— MedAdhIR. It was developed in a paper format with two components, a screening tool and a comprehensive assessment.

The screening tool flags individuals who need to be further examined. The comprehensive assessment then drills down to an array of factors recognized by the World Health Organization that are highly

associated with why individuals fail to take their medications as properly prescribed.

The factors range from patient-related problems to socioeconomic issues.

The tool was adopted by a few organizations, but Shelton wanted to make it more widely available to practitioners through an electronic venue.

In 2011, Shelton was working full-time at Campbell University. She contacted her colleague, Ted Hancock, to discuss the possibilities of creating an app for MedAdhIR. Hancock had worked as a professional software developer for 12 years prior to becoming a pharmacist, and was excited about the opportunity to develop the app. They decided to start with an app for the screening tool, since the comprehensive assessment would be more complicated.

Shelton got ASCP involved later that year. She was preparing to serve as president of the organization by developing a strategic plan, and she wanted to include the app as one of her initiatives. A huge focus for ASCP is expanding the organization’s reach to pharmacists and other health professionals who work with older adults. This app is an opportunity to care for the senior population, so Shelton was able to create an innovations committee to produce the app.

Hancock served on the committee along with other ASCP members who contributed to the design and development decisions.

“I produced YouTube videos about twice monthly to demonstrate the user interface and solicit input on changes,” Hancock said.

“This spring we distributed early versions of the Android ® and Apple ® app to pharmacy

students at several schools who were conducting brown bag events for senior adults.”

ASCP launched the app in May during the organization’s Spring Conference and Exhibition in Anaheim. As president of ASCP, Shelton made the announcement during the opening session, and Hancock provided demonstrations for the app in the exhibit hall throughout the entire conference.

The app presents a series of ten questions and calculates a risk score from zero to 10.

There are three additional questions that test for serious adherence problems. If the score exceeds two, or if any of the final three questions are issues, the app recommends that the patient receive a comprehensive evaluation by a senior care pharmacist.

A button is available on the results page that brings up a directory of senior care pharmacists in the area.

The app is available for $0.99 and includes any updates free of charge. Search “MedAdhIR” at Apple ® and Google Play ® stores to download the app.

As for the next step, the innovations committee at ASCP is focusing on a second app for the comprehensive assessment portion of MedAdhIR. They hope to have it available within the next year.

“I feel good that we’ve actually created something that makes it easier for pharmacists to screen patients for nonadherence,” Shelton said. “I think there is a lot of potential, and we’ll just have to see if it catches on.”

Community pharmacy runs deep in the Carroll family tradition If you saw Alan Carroll, PharmD ’05, at work today, you would see community pharmacy is in his blood. He stands behind the counter checking prescriptions at Carroll Pharmacy, a family business that his father, Kay, started 35 years ago in Smithfield, N.C. Growing up, Alan watched his father counsel patients and fill prescriptions, and really admired the way he helped people. This made Alan interested in becoming a pharmacist, but it actually didn’t end up as his first career.

“It was kind of always known that Dad would love to have us work here, but he never pressured us to do it,” Alan said, who is the middle of three children in his family.

Alan entered the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the fall of 1993 to pursue pharmacy school but quickly changed his mind, and studied political science instead. He graduated in 1997 and found a job in electrical sales. Three years later, Alan and his wife Carolyn returned to the Smithfield area, where Alan worked for Farm Bureau selling insurance. Around that time Kay was looking to expand Carroll Pharmacy. The store was located in a strip mall and the business had out-grown the physical space.

“We’d been there 25 years,” Kay said. “Talking with Terry, my wife, I said we have to do something. We can either stay in this building and ride into the sunset, if you will, or pursue a corner lot.”

They carefully weighed their options. It didn’t look like any of their children were interested in eventually taking over the business, but in the end, they made the decision to move. Kay purchased a corner lot, just steps away from the store’s original location, and immediately started on his plans to build a new larger, modern pharmacy for his growing business.

As his father expanded the store, Alan decided to give pharmacy another try. He entered Campbell University’s pharmacy program in 2001, after completing three semesters of pre-requisite work, and graduated with his PharmD degree in 2005. He immediately started full-time at Carroll Pharmacy and has never regretted his decision to change careers.

Today, in its new location since 2001, Carroll Pharmacy is still

a thriving family business. Terry, who has done all the accounting work since the store opened, continues to handle the finances.

Carolyn helps out some with the gift area. She is currently a stayat-mom, with her and Alan’s three children, but has plans to work at the store when their youngest starts school. And Kay works as a relief pharmacist.

One thing that hasn’t changed since the store opened is Carroll Pharmacy’s dedication to serving its patients. “It’s like an old shoe - it’s the time and relationships with the patients, and that level of trust,” Kay said. “Part of healing is the confidence that the patient has in who they are dealing with…it’s not all about the pill they take.”

Alan agrees with his father, “I feel that community pharmacy holds to the values of what we offer professionally as pharmacists.

Being able to build those relationships, explain to patients how to take their medications, or make an intervention, it makes a difference in people’s lives.”

Wanting to support the future practice of community pharmacy, Alan and Kay recently created a scholarship at Campbell that will assist pharmacy students from eastern North Carolina who are interested in this area of practice.

“As part of the Carroll family, I want to have a legacy at Campbell where Carroll Pharmacy is helping educate pharmacists, with a particular interest in community pharmacy. And in eastern North Carolina, because I see a value in the relationships that we build with our customers,” Alan said.

As he continues to take on more responsibility at the store, Alan looks forward to maintaining the dedication of service in community pharmacy and in his family’s tradition.

“It’s been a privilege to come back to a small town and run a business, where it is really built on relationships and treating people like I would like to be treated,” Alan said. “That’s what Carroll Pharmacy is founded on; I’m just trying to continue that tradition here.”

Alumni Association inducts two honorary lifetime members

L

ong-time faculty members Larry Swanson, PharmD, and Jim Boyd, PharmD, MBA, were installed as honorary lifetime members of the Campbell University College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences’ Alumni Association during the institution’s 25th Anniversary Gala on April 28 in Raleigh.

The honorary lifetime membership was created to recognize individuals who have shown outstanding commitment to the College and the Alumni Association. The honorary membership is the highest honor a non-CPHS alumnus can receive from the Association.

In recognition of his dedication and outstanding work ethic, Swanson has successfully led and advanced the Department of Pharmacy Practice for more than 20 years. He arrived at Campbell in 1991 as chair and professor of pharmacy practice and continues to serve in the same capacity.

A supportive faculty member and mentor to students, Swanson is especially known for administering the Top 300 Drug Exam, a challenging exam that tests third-year students on their knowledge of the 300 most commonly prescribed medications.

Also serving at the College for more than 20 years, Boyd is currently an associate professor of pharmacy practice and the director of the PharmD/MBA dual degree program. When he arrived at Campbell in 1990, Boyd was asked to create the dual degree program in business. It was launched in 1991, and he has successfully managed the program, and taught courses in law, business and administration throughout his time at Campbell.

Known for his open door policy and compassion with students, Boyd has also proven himself as a dedicated faculty member by assisting students with special needs, advising pre-pharmacy students and providing pharmacist coverage at the University’s Student Health Services.

eAnne Kennedy, PharmD ’93, received the Distinguished Alumni Award from the Alumni Association during the institution’s 25th Anniversary Gala on April 28 at Artspace in Raleigh.

The award was established to recognize former students who have demonstrated exemplary achievement professionally and through service to the College. This is the highest honor given by the Association and Kennedy is the second recipient.

In her nomination letter, Mona Benrashid, PharmD ’10, stated, “Despite her involvement in the profession of pharmacy nationally, LeAnne is a Fighting Camel at heart as evidenced by her dedication to the education of Campbell pharmacists and her continued involvement in the Alumni Association.”

Kennedy works as a clinical specialist for inpatient hematology and oncology and serves as director of the PGY2 oncology residency at Wake Forest Baptist Health in Winston-Salem. She received her PharmD degree from Campbell University in 1993, followed by a pharmacy practice residency at WFBH. Kennedy is regarded as a leader in the profession of pharmacy across the country. She serves as a founding member of the Hematology and Oncology Pharmacy Association and in 2001 founded the North Carolina Oncology Pharmacist Association.

She has held multiple leadership roles within numerous national pharmacy organizations and served as the College’s Alumni Association president in 2004.

Despite her busy schedule, Kennedy fosters the growth of future pharmacists and medical professionals by serving as an adjunct faculty member and preceptor for several universities, including Campbell. She has been recognized twice by Campbell’s pharmacy students as preceptor of the year.

“It is with great appreciation and humility, that I am able to accept this award,” Kennedy said. “To have a former student nominate me was the highest honor.”

At some point in our education or career at Campbell, our description of campus has been our “home away from home.” As we develop through the ranks as students and become alumni, we owe it to our alma mater to give back to our “home away from home.” Campbell is a special place, and each seat in our programs is coveted by many. We are all blessed to be a member of the Campbell family and as brothers and sisters in Christ and Campbell, we need to make an effort to come back home.

As this year’s president of the Alumni Association, my goal is to reunite our family and encourage others to become more involved. It has been my pleasure to serve on the board since 2005, and our Alumni Association has continually advanced each year. We have improved membership, fundraising for scholarships and communication; however, our programs are growing exponentially and as an Alumni Association we need to proactively respond.

Just as you welcome new additions to your own families with marriages and births, please remember to join us for functions that include welcoming new pharmacy, clinical research, pharmaceutical sciences, and physician assistant students as well as physical therapy and public health students in the near future.

They need our support.

The alumni board is working hard to plan and commit to events through the year, which includes different locations throughout the state of North Carolina. We realize how difficult it may be to come home; just as the church is more than a location or building, home is all about the people. Please make an

extra effort to sign up for events this year. We always have a lot of fun!

I had the pleasure of mentoring a group of Campbell pharmacy students this past academic year.

We worked primarily on finding and understanding their strengths. I can’t tell you how much I learned and received in return for opening my heart to those special students. In fact, we are planning to meet again in December to volunteer our services to those less fortunate.

You may say, “I don’t have extra time to contribute.” We are all overwhelmed with work, church, community activities and family, but remember that someone at Campbell saw something special in you. Don’t forget to show us what you are made of. I look forward to seeing you this year and welcoming you back home.
