The Department of Pharmacy is a dynamic department with a progressive clinical
focus. The 400 bed facility is staffed by sixteen pharmacists, eight pharmacy
residents, six interns, seven pharmacotherapy specialists/clinical pharmacy
coordinators, three clinical pharmacy educators, technicians, messengers, and a
dedicated management team, the department participates in all aspects of
medication safety and dispensing using state of the art electronic medical

with a balance of professional, technical, and automated services, including a
complete intravenous admixture service, TPN compounder, and robotics.
Clinically, the department maintains around-the-clock drug information and
consultative services, including: pharmacokinetic dosing, nutrition support,
collaborative drug therapy ambulatory care clinics, IV to PO substitution,
automatic therapeutic substitution under protocol, antimicrobial stewardship
program and response to all cardiac arrest calls.
Currently the Pharmacy Residency Program consists of five PGY-1 residents, a
PGY-2 resident in Infectious Diseases, and two PGY-2 residents in Ambulatory
Care.

intermediate care, cardiology, transitions of care.
The resident will be on-call for 24 hours approximately once every two weeks
and will be required to staff in the Emergency Department every other Saturday
for 12 hours.
The resident will also design and implement a research project to improve the
quality of ICU care during the one-year program. The design of this project and
the results will be presented at major clinical meetings, locally and
nationally.
Residents are eligible to receive a competitive salary and benefits package,
including vacation leave, sick leave, medical and dental insurance and a travel
