The PGY1/PGY2 Health-System Pharmacy Administration and Leadership (HSPAL) Residency is an integrated, 24-month program designed to develop exceptional leaders prepared to manage complex health systems, advance pharmacy practice, and drive organizational excellence.

The program seamlessly combines the patient care and clinical expertise required of a general PGY1 residency with the advanced leadership, financial, and operational skills of a PGY2 in administration. The two-year curriculum is divided into a clinically focused PGY1 year and an administratively focused PGY2 year, with longitudinal experiences woven throughout to ensure continuous professional development. Upon successful completion, residents are prepared for a managerial, supervisory, or specialized leadership position within a complex health system.

Interested candidates should apply through the PhORCAS system. Candidates should provide PhORCAS the following:

• School of pharmacy transcript
• Curriculum vitae
• Letter of intent including your desire for residency training at ChristianaCare
