As a resident, you’ll benefit from our exceptional training program that takes advantage of the wide variety of learning experiences within both acute and ambulatory care settings.

Pharmacy Residency Program Objectives

The Pharmacy Services Department is committed to the development of pharmacy practitioners by offering the knowledge and skills required to promote, recommend and deliver high quality pharmaceutical care services. The PSPH PGY1 program will provide residents with the knowledge, attitude and skills necessary to assure optimal drug therapy outcomes. In addition, the program fosters the life skills and professionalism required to contribute positively to the health care ecosystem.

The program will give participants the chance to provide pharmaceutical care in multiple environments. Residents will be able to work independently in all areas assigned, work effectively with pharmacists in other areas, and supervise or coordinate work for others. Residents will have opportunities to educate colleagues, participate in research, and analyze and present findings. The goal is for each resident to mature in a professional role, be proactive and assertive in interacting with other staff and disciplines, and develop an awareness of local and national pharmacy issues.

Throughout the program, residents will demonstrate competencies in the following core areas:

  1. Patient care
  2. Advancing practice and improving patient care
  3. Leadership and management
  4. Teaching, education and dissemination of knowledge
