Dennis Quaid
Monday, December 7, 9:00am - 10:30am
Venetian Ballroom, Level 2 (Venetian Conference Center)
Widely acclaimed as one of the most charismatic actors of our time, Dennis Quaid is also an advocate for reducing medical errors. In his keynote address to ASHP, Quaid will tell how he and his wife, Kimberly, became motivated to launch The Quaid Foundation, an organization whose mission is to help minimize the impact of human error in patient medical care.
With insight into how such potentially catastrophic errors evolve, Quaid doesn’t blame the healthcare workers. “Individually, nurses, doctors, and pharmacists are good people,” he says, “but they’re hamstrung by working in a broken system.”
As hospital pharmacists, we welcome Dennis Quaid’s efforts. His keynote address at our Midyear Clinical Meeting will be a memorable, must-see event.
You can read more about The Quaid Foundation and their efforts to help reduce medication effors on their website at www.thequaidfoundation.org.
