    About ISMP

    The Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing medication errors. For over 25 years, ISMP has been a leader in improving patient safety and supporting healthcare professionals through its advocacy, education, and safety initiatives. ISMP’s efforts have led to significant changes in clinical practices, public policy, and drug labeling.

    In 2020, ISMP affiliated with ECRI, forming the ECRI and ISMP Patient Safety Organization (PSO). This affiliation combines the expertise of both organizations to enhance healthcare safety and support providers, patient advocates, and governments.

    ISMP operates independently of advertising revenue and relies on charitable donations, educational grants, and volunteer contributions.
