How Pharmacists Lead aims to inspire readers along their own leadership journey by highlighting examples of women in pharmacy who are leading, succeeding, and making an impact. Although women now make up the majority of graduates in the health professions, there continues to be a lack of females in leadership positions. This book explains some of the challenges that women face in the workplace, as well as solutions to overcome them.Luckily, in pharmacy, there have been plenty of women trailblazers before us. This book highlights some role models who have been leading organizations as CEOs or VPs or who are entrepreneurs with their own personal brands and businesses. How Pharmacists Lead highlights unique success stories and career paths that can inspire you no matter where you are on your own leadership journey. Many of these women have been guests on the podcast, Talk to Your Pharmacist, hosted by Hillary Blackburn, PharmD, MBA. Dr. Blackburn's passion for connecting with and sharing the stories of inspiring leaders led her to found, host, and produce the popular pharmacy focused podcast in August 2017. Dr. Blackburn is a clinically and business trained pharmacist with a decade of diverse experience in a variety of healthcare settings.

Take the Practical Approach to Applying EBM Principles Pharmacists who make clinical decisions based on experience alone overestimate the efficacy and underestimate the safety risks of drugs. This leads to variations in services and treatment that result in inappropriate care, lack of care, and increased healthcare costs. Evidence-based medicine (EBM) employs the scientific method as the key source of knowledge for making clinical decisions. This easy-to-use new guide provides a practical approach for confidently applying EBM principles in daily practice. It's a straightforward process that allows pharmacists to incorporate their own clinical judgment while they make firm decisions and recommendations based on results of rigorously conducted clinical trials. Based on a five-step process perfected over 10 years at the University of Missouri, Kansas City, School of Pharmacy, this exciting new method makes it easy to apply the EBM approach in clinical settings. The new process streamlines the highly technical and complex original EBM method, greatly reducing its complexity while maintaining rigor. Categorizing quality of the evidence in a simple and logical manner, it provides critical, time-sensitive support for clinical decision-making.
