A Light in the Pharmacy
In recent years, we’ve seen the health care industry
become anexpansive force inAmericanculture, politics,
and the economy. It has grown more specialized at a
time when we, as patients, are increasingly responsible
to navigate its complexity on our own. Sometimes help
can be found in surprising places.
Pharmacy, as a profession, is responding to the
needs and opportunities created by the new health care
landscape. Your “friendly neighborhood pharmacist”
does much more than stand behind a counter and fill
your prescriptions. Pharmacists are taking more active
roles in research, medication management, preventive
care, education, ethics … and ministry!
This issue of
Cedarville Magazine
features several
facultymembers fromCedarville’s School of Pharmacy.
Their perspectives help us see the range of health care
expertise a trusted pharmacist can provide and how
their field is uniquely positioned to share Christ with
all who seek healing.
