Program Overview

This unique two-day medication safety workshop will be led by ISMP faculty and other selected medication safety experts who, based on their own real-world experiences in establishing and evaluating medication safety programs, will help you maximize your effectiveness in meeting today’s medication safety challenges.

When you attend ISMP’s Medication Safety Intensive, you will learn how to look at your organization “through the eyes of ISMP,” focusing efforts on medication-related issues that cause patient harm. You will engage in group discussions, take part in hands-on practice in error analysis, evaluate root causes related to medication errors, and learn how to effectively select high-leverage strategies to sustain safety efforts within your organization.

Upon completion of the workshop, you will be armed with the specific knowledge and tools needed to be successful in establishing an aggressive, focused medication safety program and the associated infrastructure for continued safety improvements.
