About McLean Hospital

The PGY2 Psychiatric Pharmacy Residency Program offers a variety of learning experiences in psychiatric pharmacy at McLean Hospital. The mission of this residency program is to educate and refine the pharmacy resident’s skills in clinical pharmacy practice and patient care. This will be achieved through various learning experiences such as providing patient care in a variety of psychiatric settings, precepting pharmacy students and interns, clinical research, education of other disciplines, and committee involvement. Our goal is to help pharmacy residents develop their clinical skills to practice autonomously as an integral member of the healthcare team in a professional, ethical, and competent manner. The purpose of this PGY2 residency program is to provide residents the opportunity to build upon their Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) education and PGY1 pharmacy residency experience to become clinical pharmacists in a specialized area of practice. PGY2 residencies allow pharmacy residents to practice independently by conceptualizing and integrating their previously accumulated experience and knowledge and incorporating them both into direct patient care. Upon completion of this prog...ram, pharmacy residents will be well-prepared for clinical pharmacy practice and patient care, academia, or other specialized positions, in addition to board certification in psychiatric pharmacy.
