THis webinar is presented by CASCADES Canada as part of their Pharmacy, Prescribing and Climate Action series.
Medications are a necessary tool in healthcare. They also contribute to climate change and environmental pollution, some of the biggest health challenges of our time. Medication optimization is an important opportunity to reduce the harms to patients, health systems, and the environment caused by inappropriate medication use—and can play a vital role in shaping a healthier, more sustainable future.
On Tuesday, October 7th, join Sarah Fallis (RPh), Lisa McCarthy (RPh), and Myles Sergeant (MD) for an engaging session exploring the environmental footprint of medications and the exciting future of deprescribing. This dynamic team will share real stories of innovative medication optimization projects happening across the country.
Come be part of the conversation on building a greener, healthier path forward in pharmacy and prescribing.
