Established in 2000, the ASHP Executive Vice President’s Award for Courageous Service recognizes individuals or groups of individuals in health-system pharmacy who go beyond the call or assignment of duty to serve patients or assist pharmacists in serving patients, such as under emergency conditions or in times of natural disaster or other cataclysmic events. The award is for specific incidents of inspiring, unselfish service under adverse conditions. The award consists of a framed certificate and may be granted at any time at the discretion of the ASHP Executive Vice President. ASHP members, staff members, and others may nominate individuals for the award, which may be given without regard to membership in the Society.
Nominating Instructions
Nominees may be suggested at any time in writing with substantiating evidence. Current ASHP Board members and ASHP staff are not eligible. Nominations may be made via hard-copy mail or electronically. Nominations should be sent to:
