PGY2 Pediatric Critical Care Residency

Norton Children’s Hospital Pharmacy offers one of only a few specialized pediatric critical care pharmacy residencies available in the country. The one-year experience offers extensive exposure to all aspects of pediatric critical care. The residency will 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 for critically ill patients.  Residents who successfully complete the PGY2 Critical Care Pharmacy Residency should possess competencies that qualify them for a pediatric critical care or emergency medicine clinical pharmacist and/or faculty position and position them to be eligible for attainment of board certification in critical care. Required rotations include pediatric intensive care unit, cardiac intensive care unit, neonatal intensive care unit, adult medicine intensive care unit, pediatric emergency medicine and toxicology.  Elective rotations include adult emergency medicine, infectious disease, stem cell transplant, cardiology and administration.  Other elective opportunities exist based on resident interest.
