The hospital provides reimbursement for pharmacy licensure in Missouri and Kansas. Educational leave and travel funds provided for ASHP Midyear and Pediatric Pharmacy Association Annual Meeting.

Children's Mercy offers one postgraduate year-two (PGY2) position. The PGY2 program meets the requirements of applicable standards set forth and approved by ASHP for a residency and has received American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) accreditation.

The PGY2 pediatric pharmacy residency program builds on Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) education and PGY1 pharmacy residency programs to contribute to the development of pediatric clinical pharmacists. PGY2 residencies provide residents with opportunities to function independently as practitioners by conceptualizing and integrating accumulated experience and knowledge and incorporating both into the provision of patient care or other advanced practice settings. Residents who successfully complete an accredited PGY2 pharmacy residency are prepared for advanced patient care, academic, or other specialized positions, along with pediatric board certification.  

The focus of the program is on the provision of pharmaceutical care, with core rotations in general pediatrics, infectious disease, neonatal intensive care, hematology/oncology, pediatric intensive care and teaching/precepting in an area of choice. The residency program is designed to offer a training plan specific to each resident based on their interest, goals and past experiences. Residents are required to complete required rotations in order to build a solid pediatric foundation and have the opportunity to select elective rotations based upon their specific interests and goals.
