PROGRAM SUMMARY

The Tennessee Pharmacists Research and Education Foundation (TPREF) is proud to offer an ACPE-accredited OSHA training webinar that meets all of OSHA’s annual training requirements. The 2023 OSHA Update webinar can protect you and your pharmacy practice site against potentially devastating OSHA fines—and your pharmacy site can continue to protect the public by providing immunizations, CLIA-waived testing services, and more. This webinar will provide attendees, including pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and other health care professionals, with one (1.0) contact hour of live ACPE Continuing Education. This is a knowledge-based activity.
