The ACCP PBRN is actively recruiting all clinical pharmacists who provide direct patient care to join the Medication Error Detection, Amelioration, and Prevention (MEDAP) Study. The purpose of this study is to gather information regarding the interventions made by clinical pharmacists across the country pertaining to medication error detection, amelioration, and prevention.

The ACCP PBRN has created a one-stop resource for all PBRN-related materials called PBRNConnect. Located at www.accpri.org/pbrnconnect, this site is accessible by ACCP PBRN members using their usual ACCP.com log-in. ACCP PBRN members interested in participating in the MEDAP Study are required to complete steps within PBRNConnect. Each member will upload his/her own portfolio documents within the secure PBRNConnect site. In addition, PBRNConnect is a repository for all PBRN-related training. ACCP PBRN members will be able to view, print, and download all research and PBRN-related documents.

The MEDAP Study protocol, IRB approval letter, and data collection tools are available on PBRNConnect. The PBRNConnect site will help you determine the additional steps needed, if any, at your site before you are eligible to participate in the MEDAP Study.

Join your ACCP colleagues who have already gone to PBRNConnect, completed their portfolios, and begun participating in the MEDAP Study. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to contribute to clinical pharmacy research in a meaningful way!
