The recent record setting temperatures have most people enjoying backyard barbeques and fun in the sun.  But don’t forget to enjoy the wonderful things Spring has to offer including the last two meetings before WMSHP takes a break from monthly meetings to enjoy the summer.

Be sure to join WMSHP on Friday, April 13 to support two area pharmacy practice residents as they each present their residency project.   The scheduled presenters and their project titles are listed below.

• “A comparison of extended infusion versus traditional infusion piperacillin-tazobactam: a retrospective study”, presented by Katie Wenzel, PharmD (Bronson Methodist Hospital)

• “Evaluation of Fixed Dose Recombinant Factor VII for Warfarin Reversal in Neurosurgical Patients”, presented by Gregory F. Blank II, PharmD (Spectrum Health)

Immediately following the presentations, join us at the last Grand Rapids Griffins game of the year at Van Andel Arena.  Family and friends are welcome to attend the game.  More information on how to order tickets is available on the meeting's RSVP page on WMSHP.net.

WMSHP is still accepting applications for the annual WMSHP Scholarship.  This year, one $1,000 scholarship will be awarded.  Deadline for scholarship applications is March 31, 2012.
