Learning Objectives

The American Society of Consultant Pharmacists is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education.

The goal of this meeting, consistent with the ASCP Educational Affairs mission, is to identify needs and provide competency-based live and home study learning activities that assist pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in maintaining and enhancing their professional competencies in the following key areas, especially as they relate to senior care and geriatric pharmacy practice:

• Clinical problem solving and decision-making,
• disease state and therapeutic knowledge/application,
• leadership and entrepreneurship advancing practice, and
• the ever-changing pharmacy legal, technical, and regulatory environment.

The continuing pharmacy education provided by ASCP shall be applicable to the practice of pharmacy through its focus on evidence-based medicine for the delivery of patient-centered care and public health as part of the interprofessional health-care team, and focus on continually enhancing the quality of care for all older persons through the appropriate use of medication and the promotion of healthy aging.
