Program Overview
This presentation reviews the effect of a tragic medication error on the lives of the two victims, patient Emily Jerry and pharmacist Eric Cropp.  Over the span of four years since the incident, much has changed in the lives of the families involved and in the practice of pharmacy.  This compelling and emotional presentation is presented by Eric Cropp and Chris Jerry.  This is the sequel to "Emily's Act:  Impact on Public Safety and Medication Errors", which many participants stated was the most moving continuing education program they have ever attended.
