We provide clinical and administrative training for pharmacists suitable for entry into a patient care role as a clinical pharmacist and to sit for board certification. Required learning experiences include primary care, vulnerable populations (including uninsured, HIV clinic, and LGBTQ+ clinic), specialty pharmacy, anticoagulation clinic, and system & practice management. Elective opportunities (select two) include oncology, transplant, geriatrics, bariatrics, value based care, and medication safety. Other elective learning experiences may be developed based on resident interest and preceptor availability. Residents are also given the opportunity to develop and enhance their practice management and leadership skills through focused departmental responsibilities. There is no longitudinal staffing component to this residency program.
