FAQ

Question: What types of residencies are available?

Answer: Residency training can take place in a variety of setting, including hospitals, long-term care facilities, ambulatory care settings, and community pharmacies. That said, there are two types of residencies available: pharmacy practice and specialized practice.

Pharmacy practice residencies, also known as PGY1 residencies, are “general” residencies in that they serve to develop clinical competencies and skills, and further the resident’s ability to apply drug therapy knowledge to a wide variety of pharmaceutical services. Residents gain clinical experience and problem solving skills through working in a variety of areas of pharmacy, typically including acute care, ambulatory care, drug information, drug-use policy development and practice management. Pharmacy practice residencies are intended to produce well-rounded practitioners by accelerating the resident’s growth beyond enter-level professional competence as well as by developing leadership skills that can be used in any position in any practice setting.

Specialty practice residencies, also known as PGY2 residencies, are programs that provide training in a focused area of pharmacy practice. Specialty practice residencies almost always require the completion of a general practice residency, as the specialty practice residency takes the competencies and skills gained during the PGY1 residency and further develops them, allowing the resident to provide care in the most complex of cases. PGY2 residencies are offered in all of the following specialties: ambulatory care, cardiology, critical care, emergency medicine, geriatrics, infectious diseases, internal medicine, nuclear pharmacy, oncology, pediatrics, psychiatric pharmacy, and transplant medicine, among others. Residents completing PGY2 residencies should possess the competencies necessary to attain board certification (if it exists) in their particular practice area.
