Using Data Effectively to Manage the Risks to Medication Safety
October 28, 2009 by admin
This one-day interactive program, being offered by the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) and the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), is designed for pharmacy directors, risk managers, patient safety officers, medication safety officers, and other healthcare professionals seeking to enhance their ability to collect, analyze, and prioritize adverse drug event data.
Participants will learn how to select effective risk reduction strategies based on proven medication safety principles, instead of relying solely on human vigilance. They also will learn the best way to report their findings in an actionable format that will help drive medication safety efforts and show results from system improvements.
The workshops will provide take-home materials and tools necessary to analyze and prioritize medication error information and breakout sessions that offer the opportunity to gain hands-on practice working with data.
