Welcome to the 四色AV Chapter of Louisiana Society of Health-System Pharmacists

Our chapter is a student affiliate of LSHP, as well as a recognized student society of the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP). ?As members of the 四色AV Chapter of LSHP, students are also members of the regional organization, the Northeast Louisiana Society of Health-System Pharmacists.?

ASHP is a national organization whose mission is to unite hospital, clinical, student, and other health-system pharmacists across the nation. ASHP is also the national accreditation body for pharmacy residency programs and is the home of the Residency Directory. The Student Forum of ASHP serves to integrate students into pharmacy practice, through collaboration and professional development, in preparation for a successful career in hospitals and health systems. LSHP is the state affiliate of ASHP and allows students the invaluable opportunity to network with health system practitioners from all over Louisiana.

The goals of our chapter are:

• Advance interest in health-systems pharmacy among student pharmacists
• Provide leadership and clinical skills development opportunities through community outreach and professional development initiatives
• Promote interest in postgraduate pharmacy residency programs by providing student pharmacists with information and resources relevant to ASHP-accredited residency programs.?
• Addressing the needs of student pharmacists with respect to health-system pharmacy career, professional and leadership development
