Pharmacy Residency Programs

ARcare recognizes the importance of advancing the pharmacist’s role and the pharmacy profession in community and ambulatory care practice and provides education opportunities for pharmacists that both enhance their knowledge base and promote personal growth. The ARcare Postgraduate Year 1 (PGY1) Community-Based and Postgraduate Year 2 (PGY2) Ambulatory Care pharmacy residencies are single-site residency programs. The residents will spend a minimum of two-thirds of their time at ARcare primary care clinics and pharmacies. The PGY1 Community-Based and PGY2 Ambulatory Care pharmacy residencies are twelve-month, full-time practice commitments that focus on developing pharmacists as leaders within the profession, emphasizing the role of pharmacy in community health centers. The programs supply exposure to the various pharmacist-delivered patient care experiences within the community and ambulatory care practice settings.

Why complete a PGY1 Community-Based residency program at ARcare?

  • Our direct patient care experiences allow residents to practice in a clinic setting as member of an interprofessional team of providers and staff.
