PGY1 Pharmacy Residency

Our PGY1 pharmacy residency program is ASHP accredited and is accepting two positions to begin July each year. The position is a 12-month postgraduate training experience designed to expose residents to a wide variety of clinical experiences. Examples of clinical services that will be performed during the residency include, but are not limited to, optimization of medication therapy, patient care rounding, pharmacokinetic and renal dosing, therapeutic drug monitoring, drug information, anticoagulation dosing, and drug interaction monitoring.

In addition to clinical experiences, residents will complete a residency project, earn a teaching certificate through the Southern Illinois University Edwardsville School of Pharmacy, participate in didactic and experiential teaching, and gain drug utilization evaluation and performance improvement experiences. Residents will have the opportunity to shape the future of the residency program.
