In less than 6 months, over 800 psychiatric pharmacists and trainees will travel to Salt Lake City, Utah, to learn, network, and engage with fellow pharmacists at CPNP 2019. The stunning Grand America Hotel, built originally for the 2002 Olympic Games, awaits attendees with spectacular views of the city and mountain backdrop. We can’t wait to bring CPNP 2019 to this spectacular hotel, and we encourage you to book your room at the host hotel now.
