Overview
Established in 2012, our ASHP accredited program focuses on development of clinical skills in an acute care community medical center.
Our department of pharmacy services provides care to patients on a 24 hour basis. Clinical pharmacy services are an integral part of the patient care team at TidalHealth Peninsula Regional.
Purpose
The PGY1 residency position is designed to provide residents with an opportunity to further expand their knowledge, leadership skills and competency as it relates to general clinical pharmacy services. The work experience gained during the PGY1 residency at TidalHealth will prepare the resident to function as a general clinical pharmacist in a hospital setting, continue advanced training through a PGY-2 residency or fellowship, or apply for a faculty appointment at a school of pharmacy.
One of the main focuses of the residency program is to provide the resident with tools necessary to expand their ability to critically evaluate situations. This occurs through a strengthening of their clinical judgment and refinement of their problem-solving skills. The resident will work with several teams throughout the program, each offering a unique experience and the chance to grow as a clinical practitioner.
Opportunities for teaching and precepting students during the residency are available through an affiliation between TidalHealth and the University of Maryland Eastern Shore School of Pharmacy and Health Professions.
