What Does a Pharmacy Resident Do?

Pharmacy residents work under the guidance of experienced pharmacists and healthcare professionals. Depending on the program, they may support medication therapy, participate in clinical rounds, counsel patients, review treatment plans, contribute to quality improvement, and complete research or teaching projects. Responsibilities and rotations vary by institution and residency focus.

Common Pharmacy Residency Paths

Postgraduate Year One (PGY1) programs generally provide broad training in pharmacy practice and patient care. Postgraduate Year Two (PGY2) programs offer specialized training, such as critical care, oncology, infectious diseases, ambulatory care, or other clinical areas. Some pharmacists also pursue residency opportunities focused on pharmacy administration, managed care, or research.

Qualifications and Skills

Requirements vary by employer and program. Pharmacy resident candidates commonly need a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree and eligibility for pharmacist licensure, with licensure timing determined by the program. Employers may also value clinical judgment, communication, collaboration, attention to detail, and the ability to apply evidence-based practice. Review each listing carefully for specific qualifications, application materials, and deadlines.
