The Clinical Reasoning Series explores cutting-edge, contemporary therapeutic topics and demonstrates scientifically sound clinical reasoning and decision-making. The series uses learning activities designed to advance the participant’s skills and abilities in critically evaluating the scientific evidence and effectively incorporating significant findings into daily practice that lead to effective and safe patient care. With programs in Critical Care Pharmacy, Ambulatory Care Pharmacy, and Pediatric Pharmacy, the Clinical Reasoning Series is one component of the professional development program developed by ACCP and approved by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS) for recertification credit.
