The resident will gain a true competence in the management of medical emergencies through active involvement with traumas, cardiac alerts, stroke alerts, resuscitations, toxicology consults, and procedural sedation arriving through the emergency department. The resident will also have the opportunity to enhance their precepting/teaching skills while serving as the primary preceptor for both rotating students and PGY-1 residents and while working hand-in-hand with the medical emergency medicine residency group.

Residents completing this training program will be developed as pharmacotherapy specialists working intimately as a member of the emergency department team to provide safe and cost-effective pharmaceutical care.
