• The Residency in Pharmacy Practice program is a
12-month accredited post-graduate learning experience
that provides concentrated and directed training for
pharmacy graduates. Pharmacists who complete a hospital residency are highly qualified clinical practitioners
trained in providing exemplary bedside patient care.
• Training includes development of knowledge and skills
in providing direct patient care, drug distribution and
intravenous admixtures, drug information and evaluation, hospital pharmacy management, and research.
How can the health care team benefit from residents?
• Do you have a pharmacy resident on your team? Ask
them a question! A resident has protected learning time
in their residency with decreased patient loads and
highly experienced mentors. Each question offers a
great learning opportunity.
• Graduates of residency programs are prepared for challenging and innovative pharmacy practice. They bring
valuable insights from the varied range of practice settings they are exposed to during the residency and the
expert pharmacists that they have been trained by.
