Pharmaceutical care is a patient-centered, outcomes oriented pharmacy practice that requires the pharmacist to work with the patient and the patient's other healthcare providers. They must work together to promote health, prevent disease, and assess, monitor, initiate, and modify medication use to assure that drug therapy regimens are safe and effective. The main goal of pharmaceutical care is to optimize the patient's health and achieve positive clinical outcomes, within realistic economic expenses.

Pharmaceutical care tutoring provides the student with an academic professional who has experience in the course. A tutor can help the student to find what study strategies do and do not work for them. They can also help the student to avoid making the same mistakes they did while taking the course. Working with a tutor allows the student to develop relationships with professionals in their field. Students can have one on one discussions with their tutors about topics discussed in the classroom. A pharmaceutical care tutor can also assist the student with critiquing research papers and data. If a student is struggling to understand a concept or read data, a tutor can work with them to understand what they are reading.
