Bibliographic record
Abstract
The 2012-2013 University of Saskatchewan Pharmasave-Rubicon Annual Innovation in Pharmacy Student Business Plan Competition took place Thursday March 28, in Convocation Hall at the University of Saskatchewan. Congratulations to Jenna Foulds, Ariane Lewis, Amy Lix, Lisa Lukye, and Stephanie Miller of the Pharmaceuticals for Animal Wellness (PAW) team! Each team of student pharmacists was given the task of creating a business plan with the goal of implementing a new, sustainable professional service into an existing practice setting. There were 15 teams of third-year student pharmacists presenting their business plans. Each team had 10 minutes to present their plans to the judges, followed by 5 minutes of questions. Teams competed for prizes, a chance to present to stakeholders who are sponsors and judges of the competition, and also for the opportunity to present to their future colleagues and potential employers at the Annual Pharmacists’ Association of Saskatchewan (PAS) Conference. Plan ideas ranged from implementing services in a pharmacy for specific ethnic populations in Calgary, to adding a public health pharmacist on the Health Bus in Saskatoon, to focusing on implementing compounding and other services for elite level athletes. The mission and sole purpose of the implementation of Pharmaceuticals for Animal Wellness (PAW) is to improve the lives of animals and their owners through the provision of specialized veterinary pharmaceuticals and services. The vision for PAW is to refresh the world of veterinary pharmacy, to empower pet owners and to provide excellence in pharmaceutical care for optimal animal health. The realization of this venture will address the underserved population of Saskatoon and surrounding area. PAW’s fundamental values are passion for its patients, expertise, professionalism and accountability, excellence in products and services, and community integration. Second place went to Jeffrey Herbert, Alanna Hoesgen, Kalen MacLeod, Jill Okrainetz, Patrick Parkinson and Jenna Yurkewich for CHAMP (Comprehensive HIV Assistance in Methadone Patients Program), a program that will provide medication management reviews for patients currently enrolled in the methadone assistance program who are HIV positive. And third place went to Kristen Antunes, Arlene Dies, Harmanpreet Gill, Margaret Maria James, Juanita Lui, and Alyssa MacDougall for their program COPE (Community Outreach Palliative Endeavour) that will offer services and products designed to improve the palliative patient’s quality of life. After 3 very successful years, the competition is set to be held near the end of March 2014 in Saskatoon.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
