Program Purpose Statement

PGY2 pharmacy residency programs build on Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) education and PGY1 pharmacy residency programs to contribute to the development of clinical pharmacists in specialized areas of practice. PGY2 residencies provide residents with opportunities to function independently as practitioners by conceptualizing and integrating accumulated experience and knowledge and incorporating both into the provision of patient care or other advanced practice settings. Residents who successfully complete an accredited PGY2 pharmacy residency are prepared for advanced patient care, academic, or other specialized positions, along with board certification, if available.

Upon completion of this residency program, the individual will be able to demonstrate leadership skills and practice as an emergency medicine pharmacist, play a role on an interdisciplinary emergency medicine team, and engage in adjunct faculty responsibilities. The individual can be expected to continue their pursuit of expertise in emergency medicine practice.

Residency Goals

Develop into an independent, competent, emergency medicine practitioner with the ability to work with a multidisciplinary team to provide pharmaceutical care to patients in a range of emergency medicine settings.
Develop the knowledge and clinical skills to provide evidence-based pharmacotherapy recommendations for critically ill patients.
Formulate a research question, develop methods and complete a short-term research project.
Develop teaching and communication skills necessary to provide education to multidisciplinary emergency medicine providers and trainees.
