APIC Scholarship Day

June 17, 2025

Ambulatory Pharmacist Integration Committee (APIC) will present research and quality improvement work from the past year.

The practice gap being addressed with this activity include that all members of the health care team can lead quality improvement and research in their area of practice. Pharmacists are medication experts and it is best practice for them to routinely identify problems and participate and lead solutions through quality improvement. Pharmacy Technicians play a key role in the pharmacy workforce and patient care process as well. There is a gap in our ability to share this work within current practice in the health system.
