Residency Overview
Our residency programs provide education and training with a primary emphasis on the development of skills in specialized pharmacy practice areas. Throughout the year, residents are involved in service, education, and research activities.
During this training, residents learn to conduct patient care activities using a consistent approach that reflects the philosophy of pharmacy care across the continuum. In addition to clinical activities, residents are involved in educational programs, including pharmacy conferences, journal clubs, and a seminar presentation. Teaching opportunities include medical and nursing in-services, as well as co-precepting students from colleges of pharmacy. Research skills are developed through experience and enhanced by instruction as residents complete a research project and/or drug use evaluation. PGY-1 residents attend the ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting, a residency conference, and have the opportunity to attend and participate in other state and local conferences. PGY-2 residents attend a specialty conference within their practice area and have the opportunity to attend and participate in other state and local conferences.
Residents may elect to enhance their leadership skills through the longitudinal completion of ASHP’s Pharmacy Leadership Certificate: Management Basics course.
