Why I chose Providence Regional Medical Center Everett: I was lucky enough to have multiple experiences on rotation at Providence Regional Medical Center – Everett (PRMCE) as a student. During my rotations, my interest in inpatient care steadily grew as I was exposed to more areas of care. Compared to other rotations, I particularly enjoyed PRMCE because of their balance between providing an incredibly supportive environment with amazing preceptors while also challenging students and residents to push themselves and grow towards becoming competent and caring pharmacists. Also, as someone that is not entirely sure what clinical area I want to pursue long term, I appreciate the wide variety of experiences PRMCE has to offer as a large, community, level II trauma center. I look forward to becoming integrated into the pharmacy team here at PRMCE and am excited for the upcoming year of learning and growth as a pharmacist!
