PGY-1 Residency

The overarching goal for NKC Health's PGY-1 Pharmacy Residency program is to develop skilled, well-rounded professionals who are either ready to begin practice or enter a PGY-2 program immediately after completing the program. To meet this goal, PGY-1 residents will engage in a flexible and challenging curriculum. Preceptors work with each resident to create an educational experience that supports individual goals.
