| Description The PGY2 Critical Care Pharmacy Residency at Nebraska Medicine offers a unique and stimulating learning environment which provides comprehensive clinical training in critical care pharmacy practice. The goal of the residency program is to develop clinical practitioners who specialize in the interdisciplinary care of critically ill patients and have an interest in education and research. The resident will be integrally involved with health-care professionals throughout the continuum of patient care, including patient education, assessment, and therapeutic recommendations. Working with experienced pharmacy clinicians, the PGY2 pharmacy resident also will gain experience serving as a preceptor for pharmacy students and PGY1 pharmacy residents. Residents will provide compassionate, evidence-based, progressive medical care in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Practice Site Nebraska Medicine is nationally respected in various areas including Cardiovascular and Neurocritical Care. It is also the state’s only Level One trauma center and cares for over 60,000 patients in the emergency department annually. Additionally, Nebraska Medicine is one of four centers in the United States with a dedicated biocontainment unit. Experienced teams of health care professionals routinely drill and prepare for unforeseen future epidemic challenges. Nebraska Medicine is the clinical partner of the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC), which includes the Colleges of Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, Dentistry and Allied Health. UNMC, with an enrollment of approximately 3,600 students, is the only public academic health science center in Nebraska and is internationally recognized as a leader in patient care, research and education. The not-for-profit hospital is known for excellence and innovation in medicine. The working relationship between Nebraska Medicine and the UNMC College of Pharmacy provides a solid foundation for a quality critical care pharmacy residency program. The program provides an excellent mixture of clinical experiences, one-on-one interaction with faculty and clinical preceptors, and the flexibility to modify the program to individual needs. In addition, the residency provides many opportunities for educating and precepting students. The end product is pharmacy training that actively involves the resident in patient care, education and research. Rotational Experiences Required: - Orientation (July)
