The Children's National Postgraduate Year Two (PGY2) Oncology Pharmacy Residency Program provides learning experiences centered in the field of oncology with a focus on pediatrics. The oncology pharmacy resident will be an integral part of the pharmacy team by providing quality patient care services, providing education to health care providers as well as patients, and conducting innovative research. Core rotations provided in the program include inpatient bone marrow transplant (BMT), inpatient oncology, ambulatory oncology clinic, inpatient hematology, and investigational drug services. In order for the resident to have a comprehensive oncology experience, an adult oncology rotation will be completed at an offsite facility. The residency program will also provide teaching opportunities that will develop pedagogical skills in the context of adjunct faculty appointments with affiliated pharmacy schools. The Division of Pharmacy is affiliated with Howard University School of Pharmacy, University of Maryland School of Pharmacy, Virginia Commonwealth University, and Shenandoah University as well as other pharmacy schools around the country. An optional teaching certificate program will be available (this will be required for residents who have not previously completed one). After completion of the program, residency graduates will be able to pursue advanced clinical pharmacist and clinical specialist positions in oncology.
