Playing SCANVenger Hunt® is Easy!1. Download a QR code reader on your mobile device if you do not already

have one. You can download one for free from your app store (e.g., Neo-

reader, Red Laser, i-nigma QR).

2. During the convention, look for the SCANVenger Hunt® codes in partic-

ipating exhibitor booths, newspapers, posters, and on the leaderboard

located in the NCPA registration area in the convention center.

3. After talking with participating exhibitors, they will tell you something

related to the question on their board. Scan the code and answer the

question. If you answer correctly, you will earn points.

How to Win:To be eligible for a $1,000 cash prize, you must earn at least 3,000 points by

the time of the drawings. One winner will be chosen at random each day among

those individuals who achieved the point minimum (must be present to win).

Drawings will be held at the NCPA Pavilion in the Exhibit Hall on Monday,

Oct. 17, at 3:30 p.m. and Tuesday, Oct. 18, at 1:45 p.m.

GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY SCANNING!

You asked, we listened! The popular NCPA SCANVenger Hunt® is back for this year’s Trade

Show, and two lucky pharmacists will each go home with $1,000!

What is SCANVenger Hunt®?SCANVenger Hunt® is a game played using your smartphone or tablet to earn points by scanning

QR codes that link to questions throughout the convention. Participating exhibitors will have ea-

sels/signs with a QR code located in their booths. You can earn additional points by locating post-

ers, bulletins, or mailings throughout the convention center, scanning those codes, and correctly

answering the questions. (There will be signs posted to lead you to these codes.) Every time you

answer a question correctly, you earn points. (NOTE: SCANVenger is open to owners/managers

and staff pharmacists only.)

Attending NCPA’s Annual Conven-

tion is a major part of your profes-

sional growth and develop.m.ent.

A new city, a new hotel, and new

people to meet all add up to a

stimulating environment away from

the routine of your normal life.

However, no city is exempt from the

problem of crime today. Everyone

should know how to respond to an

emergency. To ensure that meetings

remain educational and fun, we pro-

vide the following safety tips to help

you enjoy the convention:

CHECKING IN: Use the hotel vault

safe deposit service for all valuables;

just ask at the front desk. Be care-

ful what you say in the presence of

strangers; never reveal your room

number or discuss plans for leaving

Safety Information

the hotel in a crowded area where

you can be overheard. Ask at the

front desk about the neighborhood

around the hotel so you know which

streets to avoid.

TO AND FROM YOUR ROOM: Look

into the elevator carefully before

you enter. If you are uncertain of any

occupant, wait for the next eleva-

tor. Use the peephole in your hotel

room door to identify callers before

letting them into your room. Call the

front desk before letting anyone who

claims to be hotel personnel into your

room and determine his or her legit-

imacy before opening the door. Use

every locking device on your door—

the dead bolt, chain, etc.—when you

are in your room. Check carefully to

know where the fire exits are located.

STEPPING OUT: Walk with another

person when sightseeing or shop-

ping, particularly at night. Carry your

wallet in your inside coat pocket, not

in your back pocket or purse. Avoid

shortcuts and alleys or walkways

between buildings. Remain alert

at all times, especially in crowded

areas. Thieves often operate in pairs.

One may bump you while the other

is picking your pocket or purse.

Beware of people who approach you

on the street asking for directions;

keep a polite but safe distance.

NAME BADGES: Please remember

that you must wear your name badge

at all times during convention activ-

ities. Your badge is your passport to

all educational sessions, exhibits, and

social functions. No one will be ad-

mitted to any function without an of-

ficial badge. If you lose your badge,

the fee for a replacement is $25.

We’ve GotYou Covered

American Pharmacy Cooper-ative, Inc. (APCI) is a mem-ber-owned, group purchasing organization, established in 1984, to protect and promote the interest of Independent Pharmacies. APCI enables member pharmacies to improve their positions in a competitive marketplace with an extensive offering of excep-tional services and comprehensive pro-grams designed exclusively for Community Pharmacies. APCI has you covered when it comes to assisting your pharmacy with clinical programs that enable you to pro-vide exceptional patient care to your lo-cal community. We also provide members with Legislative Representation, strong Advertising & Marketing programs, Front End Development opportunities and much more.

APCI works closely with its member phar-macies in strategic decision making and planning, much like a corporate head-quarters would function, freeing up store owners to concentrate on administering quality care to their patients and handling the daily tasks of running a pharmacy. With a membership of over 1600 pharmacies in 23 states, APCI continues to introduce new and exciting opportunities for commu-nity pharmacies to grow their businesses, expand their menu of services and better serve their patient base.

The Bowl of Hygeia award program was originally developed by the A. H. Robins Company to recognize pharmacists across the nation for outstanding service to their communities. Selected through their respective professional pharmacy associations, each of these

dedicated individuals has made uniquely personal contributions to a strong, healthy community. We offer our congratulations and thanks for their high example. The American Pharmacists Association Foundation, the National Alliance of State Pharmacy Associations and

the state pharmacy associations have assumed responsibility for continuing this prestigious recognition program. All former recipients are encouraged to maintain their linkage to the Bowl of Hygeia by emailing current contact information to [email protected].

The Bowl of Hygeia is on display in the APhA Awards Gallery located in Washington, DC.

Boehringer Ingelheim is proud to be the Premier Supporter of the Bowl of Hygeia program.
