The Ohio Innovative Practice Forum and Poster Session provide an opportunity for those transforming pharmacy practice through novel services, interventions, and practice models to share their experiences with pharmacists throughout Ohio during the 147th OPA Annual Conference, April 11-13, 2025, at Hilton Columbus Downtown. This OPA Annual Conference session is supported by the Council of Ohio Colleges of Pharmacy.
We invite pharmacists, residents, fellows, and students to submit their practice innovations. Effort will be made to honor preferences for innovative practice category submissions. However, the selection committee reserves the right to make the final determination of category for presentation (roundtable or poster). All presenters must be registered for the Annual Conference.
Innovative pharmacy practice models and services in Ohio will be showcased in the Innovative Practice Forum and Poster Session. Practitioners from a variety of practice sites are encouraged to apply to present how they have successfully adjusted workflow, tried something new, and/or implemented services as they overcame barriers to offer patient-centered care and services and improve patient access to pharmacist-provided care. This year’s session at the Annual Conference will be run differently than in the past. Instead of 10 minute comprehensive presentations, we invite pharmacists to present 8-10 minute roundtable presentations focused a patient care innovation. Audience participants will gain ideas and engage in discussion with the presenter and other roundtable attendees to enhance their own practices.
To submit your Innovative Practice abstract for consideration in the Innovative Practice Forum or Poster Session, please use this link: Innovative Practice Abstract Submission Form. There will be up to eight innovative practices chosen for the CPE roundtable presentations. Remaining abstracts accepted will be presented as part of the Poster Session.
Friday, January 31, 2025 is the deadline to submit. Notification of acceptance and presentation format/time will be sent via email to the primary author 4-6 weeks prior to the presentation.
