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.
