The McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) invites you to a Café scientifique to discuss the management of medications from hospital to home, on Wednesday, May 23rd from 6 p.m.until 8 p.m. in the relaxed atmosphere of Java U, 5620 Côte-des-Neiges. This event is funded by The Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR).


CAFÉ SCIENTIFIQUE
Managing medications from hospital to home: can we do better?

How might incomplete information about your medications lead to complications? Frequent transfers of patients between care settings and the increasing number of medications taken by patients can cause adverse drug events. Can electronic tools prevent such errors and make a difference?

Come and join the discussion with three experts:

Dr. Ewa Sidorowicz
Director of Professional services, MUHC
Dr. Louise Mallet
Geriatric clinical pharmacist, Royal Victoria Hospital, MUHC
Clinical professor, Faculty of Pharmacy, Université de Montréal
Dr. Christian Rochefort
Registered Nurse
Researcher, McGill University

The discussion will be moderated by Dr. Ari Meguerditchian, surgical oncologist at the Royal Victoria Hospital of the MUHC and a researcher at the Research Institute of the MUHC and at McGill University.

PLEASE RSVP: Melissa Bustillo at 514-934-1934 ext.32987 or info.rightrx@mcgill.ca

Bilingual discussion (French presentation) – Free Entrance – Snacks will be served
