ASHP 2015 Initiative

 

The ASHP Health-System Pharmacy 2015 Initiative (2015 Initiative) is off to a strong start toward achieving the goal of making medication use more effective, scientific and safe. The Maryland Society of Health-System Pharmacists (MSHP) is committed to helping hospitals and Health-Systems in Maryland maintain a leadership position in providing quality care and believes the 2015 Initiative is one tool to help make this happen.

Pharmacy directors in Maryland recently completed a baseline assessment survey of the 31 objectives of the ASHP 2015 Initiative. Our purpose in conducting this survey was to gather the information necessary to assess our progress, as a state, in achieving these goals. Survey responses have been collected and the results of this survey are posted here for your information.

The survey results provide assistance in identifying members' strengths and weakness associated with the 2015 targets. It is apparent that our members are making great strides in some areas of pharmacy practice. However, the survey responses also indicate some collective areas of practice where opportunity for improvement exists. MSHP will focus on these areas as targets for future programs and services it provides to members to help improve the scope and quality of services Maryland pharmacists are able to provide to our patients.
