Hazardous Drug Compounding Seminar
This application-based program is designed to take factual information presented in published USP, OSHA, NIOSH, and other healthcare guidelines and provide practical and applicable solutions to achieving compliance and safety within your practice.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
It is imperative that pharmacists are up to date with the latest regulatory and best practice requirements/changes when using hazardous drugs for compounded preparations.
This 1.5-day (12 h) live virtual seminar:
- Provides practical and applicable solutions to help you achieve compliance and safety, sourcing USP, OSHA, NIOSH, and other healthcare guidelines for all areas of practice*
- Offers the opportunity to develop and optimize your own facility blueprints
- Identifies exposure risk and how to correct it through applicable, real-life scenarios
- Facilitates the transition into compliance/maintaining compliance with USP <800>
- Enables eligibility to claim CPE credit (1.2 CEUs)
Earn more CPE credits immediately after this seminar!
- An additional 4-h seminar designed to further enhance your knowledge on current regulations and compliance
- Earn 0.4 CEUs
