SPPCP Fellowship Recognition
The Society of Pain and Palliative Care Pharmacists (SPPCP) Fellowship designation (FPPCP) recognizes exemplary members who have made significant and sustained contributions to the advancement of pain management, palliative care, hospice, and substance use disorder pharmacy practice. This honorary distinction reflects a high level of professional achievement, leadership, and dedication to the mission and vision of SPPCP.
