The Pharmacy Society of Wisconsin confers honors and awards, including but not limited to elected leadership positions within PSW; the selection for awards both by and at the recommendation of PSW; selection for service on committees and task forces of PSW; and recognition of lifetime and research and service contributions and achievements.

The PSW Code of Ethics and Member Conduct applies to all candidates for honors and awards, including elected leadership positions. Accepting any honor or award or agreeing to be considered for any elected or appointed position in PSW constitutes an agreement to adhere to the PSW Code of Ethics and Member Conduct.

Honors and awards are determined by PSW judgment and discretion. PSW retains the right to grant, defer, or decline to grant an honor or award to any person. PSW also retains the right to revoke or suspend an honor or award already granted if, in its judgment and discretion, PSW determines that it is in the best interests of the organization to do so. Suspension means the honor (and the ability of the recipient to exercise any associated privileges and rights) are held in abeyance until notice by PSW that the honor is reinstated or revoked.

All candidates for honors and awards, including leadership positions, will be asked to verify whether they have been subject to a formally filed complaint, investigation, or finding of misconduct related to harassment or discrimination based on prohibited personal characteristics or a formally filed complaint, investigation or finding of misconduct related to medical ethics or any other conduct that would potentially violate the PSW Code of Ethics and Member Conduct. While an affirmative answer will not be automatically disqualifying, the member will be contacted for a confidential discussion of the details of the complaint, investigation, or finding. PSW may contact the responsible party at the member’s current or former place of employment or leadership to inquire about any complaints, investigations, or findings involving them regarding harassing or discriminatory behavior or breaches of professional ethics.
