While we recognize the pharmacists with the ID title, it is important to recognize that every #Pharmacist #Physicians #nurse #microbiologist is a steward of our #antibiotics! Teamwork makes the dream work!

Amazing work by the UW CMV Clinic showing how their stewardship efforts helped reduce CMV treatment rates from 26% to 12% @MargaretJorgy @KleiboekerHanna @LucasTSchulz @john_ricemd @jeannina_smith @csaddler7 #txpharm #cmv #TwitteRx

Nice to finally see it in print! Selective auto-verification in the ED ⬇️ order verification volume ~ 41% without compromising patient safety. This time saved can be used by EM pharmacists to participate in higher yield activities (codes, resuscitations etc) #TwitteRx

#COVID19 changed pharmacy practice. Large survey shows workload ⬆️ Rx access, preauth. Clinical rounding, med rec time ⬇️... ⬇️clinical activities may negatively impact AU!🚨
