What Does a Pharmacy Resident Do?

Pharmacy residents work under the guidance of experienced pharmacists and healthcare professionals.

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.

Some pharmacists also pursue residency opportunities focused on pharmacy administration, managed care, or research.

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.
