Pharmacy Residency Programs

The Greenville Hospital System/University of South Carolina School of Medicine Pharmacy Practice and Critical Care Pharmacy Practice Programs at Greenville Hospital System University Medical Center are committed to providing residents with the skills and knowledge required to evolve into independent and competent pharmacy practitioners. The residency programs are designed to advance clinical patient care and educational skills through direct patient care rotations, evaluation and application of current literature, and educational programs such as in-services, lectures, and precepting.

As a participant in one of these programs, the resident will be expected to:

  • Provide pharmaceutical care to patients in multiple settings
  • Understand principles of practice management
  • Develop independent learning skills
  • Maintain a professional ethic
  • Complete and present an original project that contributes to the advancement of pharmaceutical care
  • Actively participate in departmental educational activities
  • Participate in the Clinical On-Call and Clinical Consultation Service
  • Provision of pharmacy operations staffing coverage

Each residency program is a 12-month postgraduate curriculum that offers experience in acute care, ambulatory care (for pharmacy practice residents only), drug information and drug use policy development, clinical services and practice leadership. The opportunity to practice in an integrated health care delivery system that provides exposure to both private and academic medicine is a particular advantage of these residency programs. The programs are dedicated to providing each resident an individualized experience based on specific goals, interests, and experience. All residents are required to complete rotations in core subject areas. Elective rotations are available, allowing residents flexibility in pursuing individual goals and interests.
