A Day in the Life: What to Expect as a Pharmacy Resident T2 Roadmap to Postgraduate Training in Pharmacy YR 2013 FD 2013 PB The McGraw-Hill Companies PP New York, NY SN 978-0-07-178875-5 LK accesspharmacy.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=57840231 RD 2024/04/19 AB Congratulations! You have made the decision to be a pharmacy resident. Residency is a time filled with learning and transitions—continuing as a trainee but beginning your professional career as a pharmacist. You will still receive formal evaluations based on the accreditation standards of your program, but also start to rely on self-evaluation and making corrections based on your own internal criteria. You will be taking greater responsibility for patients, and be making the decisions related to their best care. The day-to-day schedule is your path forward, a main determinant in how you advance toward the desired outcomes of your program. Knowing what to expect and understanding the rhythm of your residency are important first steps in preparing yourself for the adventure. This chapter gives you a glimpse of a resident's “day in the life” duties and responsibilities.
