Message from the Director
Welcome and thank you for your interest in Critical Care Pharmacy! Our Cone Health family has been involved in pharmacy residency training since 1968 and we are thrilled to further that training with a focused residency in critical care. Our diverse patient populations, our well-trained and motivated pharmacists, and our collaborative multidisciplinary services provide a breadth of opportunity for specialized training in critical care.
Our teaching philosophy focuses on providing challenging learning experiences to allow for resident growth and development into competent critical care clinical specialists.
We are also committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) by partnering with people inside and outside of our organization to ensure that we are embedding DEI into everything we do. We promise to be “right here with” all those we serve, which means that no one is discounted. That promise extends to our team members, and we keep it by deep reflection and examination of our policies, practices and processes to make sure our team members feel respected, accepted and valued, and they know that they belong.
Together, we will work with you to design a training program that is challenging and flexible and supports your areas of interest. Our innovative and caring culture fosters strong autonomy while providing clear expectations. It requires a great deal of self-motivation along with personal commitment to glean the full benefit of the experience.

Program Purpose
PGY2 pharmacy residency programs build on Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) education and PGY1 pharmacy residency programs to contribute to the development of clinical pharmacists in specialized areas of practice. PGY2 residencies provide residents with opportunities to function independently as practitioners by conceptualizing and integrating accumulated experience and knowledge and incorporating both into the provision of patient care or other advanced practice settings. Residents who successfully complete an accredited PGY2 pharmacy residency are prepared for advanced patient care, academic, or other specialized positions, along with board certification, if available.
