PGY2 Critical Care Pharmacy Residency Learning Experiences

The Medical Center pharmacy residency programs are structured to provide exposure to a variety of practice settings with the goal of developing well-rounded clinical pharmacists. Over the course of one-year, residents will complete required, elective, and longitudinal learning experiences to develop skills in medication management, participating in medical emergencies, leadership, research, precepting, and interprofessional communication and collaboration while simultaneously being exposed to various disease states. Required PGY2 program rotations will focus on the respective specialty area, while electives may focus on other areas of pharmacy practice.

Each resident will complete a two-week orientation at the start of the residency year. The training completed in this introductory course will prepare residents to perform tasks necessary to function in the role of a pharmacist at the Medical Center. Residents will also be oriented to the pharmacokinetic and emergency response services. PGY2 Critical Care residents will also participate in a core topic review with preceptors for common critical care disease states. 

The standard length of time for a learning experience in the UMMMC PGY2 Critical Care residency program is 5 weeks. A one-week project block will be built into the schedule around the midpoint of the year. All required, elective, and longitudinal learning experiences are listed below.
