The 2023 ASHP Summer Meetings Medication Safety community has been planned with a theme: Recognizing we are fallible humans who need support in order to be resilient. Attendees will be provided the tools to help themselves, their co-workers, and their patients in several interactive workshop sessions. Faculty are educating attendees on the top safety issues and concerns, but are doing it in a fun way, recognizing it is okay to acknowledge and accept there's a certain level of burnout and we need a chance to have fun and connect with our peers.
