Summary
The US Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) is the only nonprofit organisation devoted entirely to preventing medication errors. During its more than 30-year history, ISMP has helped make a difference in the lives of millions of patients and the healthcare professionals who care for them.
ISMP is known and respected as the gold standard for medication safety information. It also has served as a vital force for progress. ISMP’s advocacy work alone has resulted in numerous necessary changes in clinical practice, public policy, and drug labelling and packaging.
