Welcome from the Program Director!
Lahey Clinic's PGY1 Pharmacy Residency Program provides a diverse, flexible and challenging training experience for individuals seeking accelerated professional growth. Residency training is designed around the ASHP's (American Society of Health-System Pharmacists) Residency Learning System model. Teaching skills are developed on-site and through opportunities at Northeastern University School of Pharmacy and the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences in Boston. In addition, a multidisciplinary collaborative research project is conducted and presented at the Eastern States Regional Residency Conference. Emphasis is on progressive development of judgment and professional competence.
Upon successful completion of the program, the resident will be well-prepared to obtain a clinically-oriented position in an acute care or ambulatory care setting, become adjunct faculty or pursue further post-graduate training.
Our application requirements are below. Please e-mail me with any questions or comments. Thank you for your inquiry into our program.
