OSHP Sections & SIGS

As an OSHP member, you can join any Section at no additional cost. Choose one as your Primary Section to vote on leadership and key decisions—but you’re welcome to be part of as many as you’d like.

Sections connect you with others who share your interests or practice area. It’s an easy way to build relationships, exchange ideas, and stay current. Many Sections offer online discussions and opportunities to collaborate on presentations or projects.

Pharmacy Management

The Pharmacy Management Section of OSHP exists to connect pharmacy leaders across the state of Oregon. The section was created to bring formal and informal leaders together to discuss experiences, share ideas and support each other. We hope to engage our members including pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and students with regular events. If you have an interest or knack for strategic planning, coordinating efforts to accomplish objectives, and/or inspiring others, this might be the right group for you!

Medication Safety

The Medication Safety section of OSHP aims to establish a professional network for pharmacists, technicians, and students statewide to focus on medication safety topics. Our goal is to promote pharmacy practitioner ownership and application of medication safety principles in daily practice. The section also helps to identify and develop educational activities and resources related to medication safety, propose appropriate risk-reducing strategies for emerging issues, and promote the medication safety officer’s value in advancing health care quality and safety initiatives.

Ambulatory Care

The Ambulatory Care Section of OSHP strives to be a professional network of pharmacists across the state of Oregon who provide ambulatory care services. Activities of the section are designed to facilitate a sharing of ideas, resources and efforts as they relate to the practice of pharmacy in ambulatory care settings, as well as create the framework for establishing local and regional practice-based networks. Section membership is comprised of pharmacists who practice across a variety of settings including, but not limited to, primary care, managed care, anticoagulation, community pharmacy, pain/palliative care, and community health centers. We hope that you will join us and find your pharmacy "home" in our section!

Inpatient Practitioners & Clinical Specialists

The Inpatient Practitioners and Clinical Specialist section of OSHP aims to establish a professional network for acute care pharmacists, technicians, and students statewide. Our goal is to provide opportunities for acute care and specialty practitioners to share experiences and knowledge in an open forum to optimize patient outcomes. In doing so, we hope to foster communication across the different specialties for practitioners throughout Oregon. We look forward to seeing you at our next event!

Informatics, Technology & Research

The Informatics, Technology, and Research Section of OSHP strives to be an active and engaging community for pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and students involved or interested in this rapidly growing specialty practice. We hope to engage our members with regular community events, where we can discuss common experiences, discuss strategies/solutions, and share ideas, either locally or remotely. Join us as we connect health care information technology and research pharmacy practitioners throughout the Oregon state area, and we hope that you find your pharmacy "home" in our section!
