ASHP represents pharmacists who serve as patient care providers in acute and ambulatory settings. The organization’s more than 45,000 members include pharmacists, student pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. For over 70 years, ASHP has been on the forefront of efforts to improve medication use and enhance patient safety.
Since 2007, McCreadie Group has partnered with ASHP to provide web-based residency program management software that effectively promotes systematic program design, timely feedback to residents and the maintenance of required documentation. The software, developed and supported by McCreadie Group, is offered as an ASHP-member benefit for accredited pharmacy residency programs.
In 2014, ASHP announced its selection of PharmAcademic™ as the new platform for supporting ASHP’s Residency Learning System. And in 2018, ASHP selected McCreadie Group’s, PharmAcademic™, as the exclusive software solution required for Residency Program Management.
“We are very pleased to continue our relationship with ASHP to serve the needs of pharmacy education providers, students and residents through comprehensive electronic tools that help measure student and resident competencies and facilitate improvements in operational efficiencies of the programs.”
