COMPASS Newsletters
To support COMPASS and patient safety, two newsletters are being provided to the pharmacy staff.
- The [directions] newsletter is produced by the Saskatchewan of Pharmacy Professionals and is intended to provide pharmacy staff with information specific to the COMPASS program and medication and patient safety.
- The SMART newsletter is produced by ISMP, based on anonymous medication incidents reported to the CPhIR program, is designed to help initiate discussion and encourage collaboration in continuous quality improvement.
[directions] Newsletter
The [directions] newsletter was created to provide participating pilot COMPASS pharmacies with statistics, helpful hints, upcoming deadline reminders and other safety-related information. Since Council has approved the continuous quality improvement bylaws for proprietary pharmacies, [directions] is now sent to all pharmacies to provide needed information on the COMPASS program.
