MissionTo promote the professional development of pharmacists and the advancement of pharmacy practice in Oregon through education, collaboration and advocacy.
VisionOregon will be a model of excellence for the practice of health system pharmacy.
ActivitiesThe society provides several CE programs throughout the year as part of its Northern and Southern Chapter meetings. The meetings begin first with a review of chapter business, which allows officers to communicate and discuss important issues with members in person. The Technician Chapter also holds its own combined chapter business and CE meetings six times annually. OSHP publishes its own newsletter, Interactions, bimonthly. It serves to keep members up-to-date regarding pharmaceutical, legal, and organizational topics. Since 1998 the society collaborates with OSPA and OAHHS via the Statewide Pharmacy Coalition. The three organizations united to increase the strength and coherency of legislative advocacy on initiatives important to pharmacists. OSHP actively monitors and lobbies on initiatives involving Medicare medication management services, technician licensure, pharmacist provider status, and foreign drug importation.
