Our PGY-1 program鈥檚 success stems from the incredible dedication of our residency preceptors and residents, the support of forward-thinking hospital and pharmacy leaders, and an innovative practice model that supports a high level of pharmacist engagement in patient care and medication management. I am so proud to be the residency director for a program that provides the diverse experiences and mentoring that allow our graduates to be leaders in patient care and catalysts in moving our profession forward.鈥

The U of U Hospitals and Clinics Postgraduate Year 1 (PGY-1) Residency Program is a comprehensive and progressive training program that develops residents as clinicians, researchers, writers, preceptors and practice leaders.

Residents also develop excellence in leadership with a talented group of pharmacy directors and managers and benefit from training in a premier drug information service.

The program offers more than 40 diverse rotations with 70 engaged and talented pharmacist preceptors throughout the health system. Residents quickly learn the university鈥檚 culture of exceptional patient care that is individualized to the needs of each person served in the hospitals and clinics and in the community at large. Residents participate in the teaching mission of the department through providing multiple presentations, completion of an innovative teaching certificate program, and working with the pharmacy intern training program. Research and project management skills are honed through both longitudinal and rotational projects.

Over the past 20 years, the PGY-1 program has produced leaders in a broad range of practices across the country. The 亚洲自慰视频 of Utah Hospitals and Clinics鈥 commitment to continually improving the quality of the PGY-1 program has led to a program that exemplifies excellence in residency training.
