Due to our COVID-19 response, our meetings have been moved to virtual spaces and are now free of charge. Unfortunately the language in our registration form still refers to billing and payment options. Please choose the "Pay later" option at the end of the form, and rest assured that you won't be charged.

Our exclusive reports highlight key insights for your facility and our unique workshops create collaboration and innovation sharing of best practice across Australia and New Zealand members.
The goals of the group are to:
- Bring together a Multi-Disciplinary group of Pharmacists, Physicians, Nurses, Health information Managers and Data Analysts to identify “best practice” for safe and effective medicines use in Australasian hospitals.
- Reduce adverse hospital events and complications that are attributed to medications
- Identify “exemplar performers” in relation to medication safety practices
- Share innovations in practices with an aim to improve patient and staff experience in relation to the dispensing and management of medication.
