January 2017

Dear members,

 

As the 2017 President of the Washington Metropolitan Society of Health-System Pharmacists, it is with
humble and deep felt appreciation that I assume this role as chief representative of the society.

I wish to thank all the hard work and effort of previous board members who brought to the table fresh
ideas and innovation in order to expand the scope of the pharmacy profession. I will continue to strive
for anincreased level of active participation drawn from our current membership as well as new
members brought forth through active recruitment. I will strive to strengthen and expand key
committee roles by exploring new and innovative avenues within our profession. I will continue our role
as educators by pursuing both CE and non-CE events in order to increase knowledge and awareness
within the field of pharmacy. Furthermore, I will draw on new technology to cast a wider net
of involvement for all interested parties.

Once again I wish to say thank you to all members of the Washington Metropolitan Society of Health-
System Pharmacists for your continued support. I look forward to another productive 2017 year full of
learning and outreach in order to advance the pharmacy profession. I invite all members to open the
lines of communicate with the WMSHP leadership and make yourselves readily available for the year
ahead.

Sincerely yours,

Justin
