“It has been pretty exciting (and very cold)! The government shutdown did make the first few weeks a little slow, but things have picked up since the government opened up again (even though temporarily)! I’ve had opportunities to speak with a lot of different healthcare professionals with strong interests in safe medication use and communication and will even be attending a Senate hearing about healthcare costs tomorrow!”
