Anticoagulation Stewardship is a current growth area in specialized pharmacy practice. To help facilitate the growth of Anticoagulation Stewardship programs nationally, the Anticoagulation Forum and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists have collaborated in launching a newly recognized PGY2 specialty area of Thrombosis and Hemostasis Management. The 2026-2027 academic year will be the fourth year we offer this residency opportunity.

Our program offers a combination of block learning experiences and longitudinal learning experiences that occur over the course of the residency year. Required block experiences include orientation, inpatient anticoagulation 1 and 2, cardiology, critical care, and emergency medicine.  Longitudinal experiences include outpatient anticoagulation, pathology/anticoagulation laboratory science, anticoagulation stewardship leadership, thrombosis and hemostasis medication safety, service, and research.  Elective block rotations in pharmacogenomics and benign hematology are available. Residents will be required to complete a research project over the course of the year and will attend a national meeting, SDSHP Annual Meeting, and the Midwest Pharmacy Residency Conference, which are all part of the residency program.

All residency candidates must meet the following prerequisites:

• Earned a PharmD degree from an accredited college of pharmacy
• Hold an active pharmacy license, or be eligible for licensure in South Dakota
• Be participating in or have completed an American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) accredited PGY1 residency program or one in the ASHP accreditation process.
