An Invitation To Join The Metroplex Society of Health-System Pharmacists

GREETINGS

On behalf of the officers and members of the Metroplex Society of Health-System Pharmacists (MSHP), you are cordially invited to become a part of this rapidly growing, dynamic, professional organization. MSHP includes pharmacists, technicians, and other healthcare professionals whose goal is to optimize pharmacy practice for the public’s benefit. We solicit your membership and support to further improve and expand pharmaceutical services.

Today’s environment of pharmacy presents many exciting challenges to the practitioner. Patient oriented services such as intravenous admixtures, medication profiles, drug information, unit dose distribution systems, automation, and clinical pharmacy services require a continuing commitment on the part of the health-system pharmacist. Whether one offers professional knowledge and skills to a 15-bed nursing home or to the complexities of a 1000 bed integrated health system network, the responsibility of providing the best possible pharmaceutical services is of equal importance.

Such responsibility and commitment require the active support on one’s professional colleagues. MSHP is the only organization specifically directed and motivated to assist the pharmacist and other related health care professionals in improving institutional and health care pharmacy practice in the Metroplex. We look forward to your active participation!
