The McLaren Greater Lansing PGY1 pharmacy residency is an ASHP-accredited 12-month program beginning at the end of June that will build on your Doctor of Pharmacy education, offering opportunities to expand your abilities in pharmaceutical care. Two candidates selected annually will work closely with experienced preceptors in a variety of settings, ultimately preparing the graduates as highly marketable pharmacists, or to further their training in a PGY2 or other educational setting.
McLaren Greater Lansing is proud to also offer several ACGME medical residencies. The medical center collaborates with two Michigan State University medical schools and a nursing program, along with hosting health care students from other Michigan colleges and universities. This learning environment extends to pharmacy residents the opportunity to take part in multidisciplinary learning experiences and teaching.
Residents at McLaren Greater Lansing will enhance their knowledge and skill sets by participating in required and elective rotations. Residents will participate in all pharmacy clinical services, including multidisciplinary rounding, pharmacokinetic and anticoagulation dosing services, dispensing, provision of drug information, and precepting pharmacy students.
