Our ASHP accredited PGY1 residency programs at Kettering Medical Center and Grandview Medical Center build on Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) education and outcomes to contribute to the development of clinical pharmacists responsible for medication-related care of patients with a wide range of conditions. PGY1 graduates will be well-equipped for board certification, postgraduate year two (PGY2) pharmacy residency training, academia, and a successful career in pharmacy.

The programs focus on producing a well-rounded and independent clinical pharmacist. Graduates will be trained to provide effective Pharmacy Services beyond entry-level professional competence for patients in the acute care setting. Development of Pharmacy Leadership skills in the Administrative, Operational, and Clinical practice models within the acute care setting is also a priority.

Residents are encouraged to complete the Teaching Certificate Program. They will also complete longitudinal activities including a research project, Medical Education Residency lectures, seminar presentations, pharmacy staff education, journal clubs, medication use evaluations, and new drug monographs among other projects. Residents will also be involved  in various hospital committees.
