Introducing CodeRx Community Updates!
A new way to stay up to date with the CodeRx Slack community
Greetings CodeRx community!
We are excited to announce the development of our new Substack section, called "Community Updates", which aims to keep you all informed about the latest developments and news within our CodeRx Slack community.
This Community Update will be different from our main Newsletter. We want to keep the community up to date and engaged however works best for them. We aim to send an update once per month that will highlight in-depth topics and discussions. In the coming months, we will try to publish new posts on a regular basis, covering a wide range of topics related to pharmacy, technology, coding, and data. We will also be featuring guest writers and experts in the field, so you can hear from a variety of perspectives. If you’d prefer to interact mainly via the Slack (or if you only want to subscribe to the main CodeRx Newsletter), you can unsubscribe from Community Updates at any time.
In case you didn’t know we had a Slack community, feel free to jump into the conversation by clicking the big red button below.
Below is our first update. We want to emphasize that we are open to feedback from our community members. We want to make sure that the content we produce is relevant, informative, and engaging. So, if you have any input, suggestions, or ideas for future posts, please don't hesitate to let us know.
Thank you for being a part of our community, and we look forward to growing and learning together as we continue to develop and refine our skills as pharmacists and clinicians who code.
Sincerely,
The CodeRx Team
