The Consumer Healthcare Products Association Educational Foundation has named PatientPoint its 2020 Community Partner of the Year.

The organization is being honored for promoting the CHPAEF and Acetaminophen Awareness Coalition campaign “Know Your Dose,” in the offices of more than 35,000 healthcare professionals and in more than 550 hospitals nationwide.

PatientPoint chief client officer Linda Ruschau will accept the award during the CHPA Educational Foundation’s 5th annual gala on Nov. 18.

“Against the backdrop of COVID-19, the foundation’s work to promote medicine safety is more important than ever — and our success is thanks in large part to our collaboration with partners like PatientPoint who share our vision of happier, healthier lives through responsible self-care,” Anita Brikman, executive director of the CHPA Educational Foundation said. “We look forward to honoring PatientPoint as our 2020 Community Partner of the Year for their efforts in promoting “Know Your Dose” across their point-of-care network and allowing more healthcare professionals and patients to discuss this important message together.”

Designed to educate patients about the presence of acetaminophen in more than 600 over-the-counter and prescription medications, “Know Your Dose,” safety messages were featured on the waiting room screen of five specialty offices — primary care, OB/GYN, neurology, dermatology and gastroenterology. 

“Our platforms are designed to educate and empower patients and spark important conversations between healthcare professionals and their patients about specific treatments and safely using OTC products like acetaminophen,” Linda Ruschau, PatientPoint chief client officer said. “We’re honored to be named the 2020 CHPAEF Community Partner of the Year and are proud to play a part in relaying this important messaging when care conversations are happening and specific OTC products are being discussed, recommended and ultimately purchased.”
