St. Joseph’s Medical Center is a 162-bed hospital and Level III Trauma Center with a 24-hour emergency room. Also home to the Marilyn Covey Heart & Vascular Center and the St. Joseph’s Cancer Center, we take pride in bringing a wide range of services to residents and visitors of the Brainerd, Minnesota area. St. Joseph’s Medical Center adheres to the values of hospitality, stewardship, respect, joy, justice, teamwork and quality. St. Joseph’s Medical Center is part of Essentia Health, an integrated health system serving patients in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and North Dakota. The Essentia Health organization lives out its mission by having a patient-centered focus at 14 hospitals, 73 clinics, six long-term care facilities, three assisted living facilities, three independent living facilities, six ambulance services, 20 retail pharmacies, and one research institute.
The Post Graduate Year 1 (PGY1) pharmacy residency program at St. Joseph’s Medical Center (SJMC) was established in 2012. This program is accredited by the American Society of Health System Pharmacists.

Pharmacists also respond and actively participate in medical emergencies (e.g. Code Blue, Traumas, STEMI Response, Rapid Sequence Intubations, Stroke Code). The program is highly flexible and there is opportunity for customized rotations based on resident needs and preferences. Learning experiences include, but are not limited to:
