The resident will also have opportunities to collaborate with the MUH medical residents, the 7 PGY-1 pharmacy residents, and other PGY-2 specialty residents. There are also numerous precepting opportunities with pharmacy students via inpatient rotations and an interactive, case-based course. The expanded scope of practice allows our pharmacists and residents to practice at the top of their license while building strong relationships and trust with provider groups.

In addition to a wide variety of rotational learning experiences, residents are also able to participate in several learning opportunities meant to complement their clinical rotations. These include the Pharmacy Residency Education Series (PRES), the research development series, and the University of Tennessee Teaching and Learning Program (if a similar program was not completed during the PGY1 year).
