Hospital Pharmacy Europe Virtual Study Day: IV Medicines Safety
We are delighted to announce a new event, the Hospital Pharmacy Europe Virtual Study Day: IV Medicines Safety, scheduled for 25 June 2025.
This is the first instalment of a new virtual study day series focusing on clinical and therapeutic subject areas for hospital pharmacists in the UK. This first event marks an exciting new chapter for Hospital Pharmacy Europe, launching an essential topic on IV medicines safety – the first time this area is being considered in this format.
This free-to-attend, one-day virtual event will provide hospital pharmacists and multidisciplinary clinical teams with valuable information on the latest developments in intravenous (IV) medicines safety from NHS practitioners and experts.
Produced in partnership with Hospital Pharmacy Europe, the agenda has been designed to capture the growing complexity and risks associated with IV therapy and showcase innovation to advance best practice. Each online session will contain valuable, practical and evidence-based updates that contribute to pharmacists’ knowledge and development, as well as improving patient care and contributing to a reduction in avoidable harm.
IV therapy is one of the highest risk aspects of modern medicines management. Errors and complications with IV medicines are responsible for approximately 12,000 deaths in the UK each year. IV medicines safety is an important area of learning for professionals who work in a hospital pharmacy environment.
The agenda features presentations from leading experts on the most relevant and critical topics in IV therapy, including preparation and administration risks, IV-related infections and complications, initiatives in IV safety, and advances such as ready-to-use and ready-to-administer products and the transition to NRFit.
The Hospital Pharmacy Europe Virtual Study Day will be held online and later made available on-demand, providing attendees with flexibility to access the content when their schedule allows. All sessions are CPD-accredited, with content specifically developed for pharmacists and multidisciplinary team members working with IV medicines in a secondary care environment. Tickets are available to book now.
