The philosophy of the Pharmacy residency programs is to
provide residents with the opportunity to expand their knowledge
and skills in providing comprehensive pharmaceutical care to
patients. This opportunity will be provided through active
participation in evidence-based disease state management;
patient, family and medical staff education; medication safety
and outcomes-based research.
Experiences will provide residents the ability to function independently
as specialists, while optimizing drug therapy for patients.
The St.Vincent Post Graduate Year 1 (PGY-1) Residency is a
one-year commitment designed to provide post-graduate practical
experience demonstrating the ability to manage patient care
and achieve optimal drug therapy outcomes.
The Pharmacy Department has Post Graduate Year 2 (PGY-2)
residencies in the areas of ambulatory care, critical care and pediatrics.
Thank you for your interest in the
Pharmacy Residency Programs at St.Vincent
Our residency programs provide the necessary structure and support for each resident to develop himself or
herself into a confident and capable pharmacy practitioner. The residency programs provide experiences in
diverse patient populations throughout the continuum of care settings. During the course of the training period
the resident will build on those patient care and practice management skills formed while completing coursework
and introductory and advanced pharmacy practice experiences. Additionally, the resident will be involved in
developing and administering educational opportunities for various groups including future and current
pharmacists, other healthcare providers, and patients.
The resident benefits from practicing in a nationally recognized tertiary care center and alongside a
large, dynamic, and accomplished group of pharmacists. The pharmacy resident develops his or
her skills together with those in other postgraduate programs including advanced practice nurses,
medical, surgical, and podiatry residents and fellows. The academic atmosphere in a community
hospital setting provides a truly remarkable environment for the resident to grow and develop an
independent style of pharmacy practice.
Please use our website to learn more about our pharmacy residency programs, our staff, and our
institution. Do not hesitate to contact us should you have any additional questions. Thank you again
for your interest in our programs.

Ambulatory Care Pharmacy Residency Program Overview
Philosophy
The philosophy of the ASHP accredited ambulatory care pharmacy specialty residency at St.Vincent Indianapolis
and the St.Vincent Joshua Max Simon Primary Care Center is to provide the resident with the opportunity to
expand his/her knowledge and skills to provide comprehensive pharmaceutical care to ambulatory patients.
This opportunity will be provided through active participation in evidence-based disease state management,
patient/family and medical staff education, medication safety, primary and preventive care, outcomes-based
research, educational and scholarly activities, and collaborative drug therapy management. Experiences will
provide the resident the ability to function independently as a specialist by conceptualizing, integrating, and
transforming accumulated experience and knowledge into optimal drug therapy for patients.
Purpose Statement
The purpose of the ASHP-accredited PGY-2 ambulatory care residency at St.Vincent is to build on the competencies
achieved in a PGY-1 residency and develop clinical pharmacists who provide competent, safe, evidence-based,
cost effective and highly reliable pharmacotherapy to ambulatory care patients. Achievement of a teaching
certificate along with required multidisciplinary educational activities will provide the foundation upon which
the resident can further develop his/her teaching skills in diverse didactic and clinical settings. Upon completion
of the PGY-2 ambulatory care pharmacy residency program, the resident will be prepared to attain board certification
and secure an ambulatory care position that incorporates both teaching and clinical components.

Critical Care Pharmacy Residency Program Overview
Philosophy
The philosophy of the critical care pharmacy specialty residency at St.Vincent Indianapolis is to provide the
resident with the opportunity to expand their knowledge and skills to provide comprehensive pharmaceutical
care to critical care patients with an emphasis in emergency medicine. This opportunity will be provided through
active participation in evidence-based disease state management, medical staff education, medication safety,
and outcomes based research. Experiences will provide the resident the ability to function independently as a
specialist by conceptualizing, integrating, and transforming accumulated experience and knowledge into optimal
drug therapy for patients.
Purpose Statement
The purpose of the PGY-2 critical care residency at St.Vincent Indianapolis is to build on the competencies achieved
in a PGY-1 residency and develop clinical pharmacists who provide competent, safe, evidence‐based, cost
effective and highly reliable pharmacotherapy to both the critically ill and emergency medicine patient
populations. Achievement of a teaching certificate along with required multidisciplinary educational activities
will provide the foundation upon which the resident can further develop his/her teaching skills in diverse
didactic and clinical settings. Upon completion of the PGY-2 Critical Care Pharmacy Residency Program, the
resident will be prepared to attain board certification and secure a hospital based position in critical care or
emergency medicine or an affiliated academic position with a College of Pharmacy.
