First Annual “Pharmacist Health Screening Day at the Statehouse” Set for May 14, 2002!

Mark your calendars for Tuesday, May 14, 2002, 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. to attend Pharmacist Health Screening Day at the Statehouse in Columbus. Our goal is to educate state legislators on pharmacist services by providing various screenings (e.g., blood pressure, osteoporosis, diabetes, etc.), smoking cessation information, and brown bag consultations. Legislators and their staffs will have the opportunity to participate. This event is not a focus on any specific legislation, but rather the opportunity to promote the pharmacy profession! (Note: This is not a continuing education program for pharmacists.)

Currently, state legislators are dealing with numerous pharmacy related pieces of legislation that will dramatically affect your profession. OPA wants to increase their awareness on the important role of the pharmacist in their communities. To make the event a success, we need your help. Please contact Alyson Welsh at awelsh@ohiopharmacists.org if you are interested in participating in this event. Or call the OPA office at 614.798.0037.
