Kristin and Dan were joined by Toni Howell, Medication Safety pharmacist from St V’s in Melbourne, and Chair of the SHPA Specialty Practice Leadership Group in Med Safety.
We had a really enjoyable chat, covering lots of topics, including:
A day in the life of a med safety pharmacist
The benefits of joining your SHPA Specialty practice group
Handling of medicines
The importance of managing risk
Pros and Cons of Electronic medication management
How medication safety is everyone’s job and crowd-sourcing patient care
Bad handwriting (Doctors AND pharmacists)
Nudging people to identify more med safety
A reminder! If you are an SHPA member you can join a a Specialty Practice Interest Group. And practice group members are eligible to stand for election to the Leadership Committee.
