Why UW? UW Health's drive to be on the forefront of pharmacy practice has always inspired me. There is a shared vision among the pharmacy leaders here to find novel approaches to expanding access to care, as well as efficiently delivering the highest quality of care. As a resident, you are an integral part of this leadership team and vision. You will take charge of projects central to moving the department forward, including a longitudinal project that you oversee over the course of the year. While you have excellent preceptors at your disposal to help guide you, by the end of your project, you eventually become the expert in that area. No other program entrusts its residents with as much responsibility as they do here at UW Health. And I value that trust. UW Health also offers a 60+ year legacy of producing some of the most influential pharmacy leaders across the country. These past residents and current visionaries truly care for the current residents and are always willing to offer additional support. Finally, no conversation on "Why UW Health" would be complete without mentioning the people you will work with here. What an amazing team! You will encounter a pharmacy department filled with those who are driven, supportive, and inspiring - all are motivated to foster you into becoming the best pharmacist and best pharmacy leader that you can be. It is a great environment to be a resident and one I am proud to be a part of.
