About Our Program

The ASHP accredited PGY1 Pharmacy Residency program at AdventHealth Redmond offers a comprehensive training experience designed to accelerate the professional development of competent pharmacists by promoting confidence, leadership, and advanced professional skills in pharmaceutical care. Located in the heart of Rome, GA, our hospital provides a diverse patient population and a supportive learning environment for residents to enhance their clinical skills and knowledge. Residents will complete a series of core and elective learning experiences, tailored to their individual interests and career goals. These experiences will provide exposure to a wide range of disease states and patient populations, allowing residents to develop expertise in medication therapy management. Our hospital values interdisciplinary collaboration, and residents will have the opportunity to work closely with physicians, medical residents, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to optimize patient care outcomes. Residents will actively participate in interdisciplinary rounds and committees to enhance their teamwork and communication skills. AdventHealth Redmond is a clinical training site for several colleges of pharmacy, medicine, and nursing. Residents will have the opportunity to serve as co-preceptors for pharmacy students on clinical rotations and participate in didactic teaching activities. Residents will also complete a teaching certificate program to enhance their teaching skills. Residents will engage in longitudinal experiences throughout the year, including participation in medication safety initiatives, medication use evaluations, and quality improvement projects. These experiences will foster skills in medication safety, evidence-based practice, and continuous quality improvement.

Under the guidance of model practitioners, residents will develop foundational pharmacotherapy, clinical, operational and practice management skills. Specific program structure is individualized to each resident’s strengths, interests, and career goals to establish the best strategy for resident growth and success.
