Phoebe Pharmacy Residency

Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital’s Postgraduate Year One (PGY1) Pharmacy Residency Program started in 2008, is accredited by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP).

Purpose

Phoebe’s PGY-1 Pharmacy Residency Program builds upon Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) education and outcomes to develop pharmacist practitioners with knowledge, skills, and abilities as defined in the educational competency areas, goals, and objectives. Residents who successfully complete PGY1 residency programs will be skilled in diverse patient care, practice management, leadership, and education, and be prepared to provide patient care, seek board certification in pharmacotherapy (i.e., BCPS), and pursue advanced education and training opportunities including postgraduate year two (PGY2) residencies.
