ABSTRACT
There are very few pharmacists who were there when modern day consultant pharmacy was formed, but Samuel W. Kidder, PharmD, MPH, who died October 14, 2012, at the age of 76, was one of them. As a government regulator, he helped create the role of the consultant pharmacist by developing regulations for drug regimen review and standards for detecting medication errors. Because of Kidder's ongoing involvement in nursing facility survey and certification, he also was a key resource for ASCP. He was a strong supporter of consultant pharmacists and championed reimbursement for their services. Considered a visionary in the field, he was known as an advocate both for pharmacists and for patients.
