If you are a Summer Meeting or Medication Safety Collaborative attendee, you’ll want to join the twitter feed to maximize your learning, connecting, and fun in Minneapolis. Follow the hashtag #ashpsm on Twitter and you’ll find an exciting way to broaden your horizons. A few past attendees described it this way:
“I could be in multiple places at once- without being there!”
“It's a quick visual snapshot in real time of events going on through the eyes of the attendees.”
If you’ve never tweeted before this is a great time to start! If you need some help – just look for someone with a smartphone at the Summer Meeting who looks very engaged and start up a conversation. Or go here or here to get going.
