Call for Nominations for the Pharmacist Responder of the Year Award

Call for Nominations for the Pharmacist Responder of the Year Award
Deadline Date: 17 November 2006

The Awards Committee of the Public Health Service (PHS) Pharmacist Professional Advisory Committee (PharmPac) announces the Pharmacist Responder of the Year Award.

This award recognizes a pharmacist (commissioned corps, civil service, or temporary federalized responder) that has provided outstanding emergency preparedness, disaster response, and contributions to national or international public health threats within the past 12 months.

Details of the award criteria and nomination packets can be found on the award section of the PharmPac Web site – http://www.hhs.gov/pharmacy/award1.html

Please take the time to nominate a deserving pharmacist (commissioned corps, civil service, or temporary federalize responder) for this award. If a commissioned corps officer is the recipient of the Pharmacist Responder of the Year Award, this officer’s name will be forwarded to the Office of Force Readiness and Deployment (OFRD) to be part of their nominees for the Commissioned Corps Responder of the Year Award. In the event that the PharmPAC selects a civil servant or a temporary federalized responder as the recipient of the award, then the commissioned corps officer who received the highest ranking from the PharmPAC will be forwarded to the OFRD.

All nominations and appropriate documentation must be received no later than 17 November 2006.
