American Society of Consultant Pharmacists (ASCP)
ASCP-Pacific, also known as the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists, is dedicated to and exists for improving the health of geriatric citizens, as well as advocating for the profession of consultant pharmacy. ASCP-Pacific is here to represent students interested in serving and meeting those needs. Consultant pharmacy is an area of practice where pharmacists offer expert advice on medication use and therapy management for individuals in a variety of settings. Through patient-centered care and comprehensive medication review, consultant pharmacists help prevent and reduce medication-related problems.
We currently oversee committees such as Bone Mineral Density (BMD) while also providing different opportunities for students to network with consultant pharmacists and the elderly population. Our most notable events consist of our Consultant Pharmacy Speaker Panel, Senior Prom, Cards of Light, and Omnicare Tours! We also put on several other events throughout the year to provide information about patient care and opportunities for the future. If you have any questions regarding ASCP, feel free to contact a_hoang12@u.pacific.edu.
