Standard of Care Symposium


Standard of Care Symposium

February 22, 2025
West Des Moines Marriott
West Des Moines, IA


What is Standard of Care? What are the updated Board of Pharmacy rules? What comes next?
IPA’s one-day Standard of Care Symposium will educate pharmacists and pharmacy technicians on Iowa’s new regulatory framework, covering success stories from early adopters in Idaho, considerations from the employer perspective, liability and risk management, and much more. Attendees will leave with a personalized road map for adapting their practice to the Standard of Care model, increasing efficiency and professional autonomy and, ultimately, improving patient care.
