It involves interaction with patients and healthcare providers. The field is an integration of pharmaceutical and clinical sciences. Students will learn how to initiate or modify drug therapy and disease state screenings, for example, monitoring and adjusting anticoagulation therapy and antibiotic therapy.

  4. They will study the prevention of adverse drug events, drug-drug interaction, drug-food interaction, errors in prescription, and patient noncompliance. Graduates can become clinical pharmacists, staff pharmacists, regional pharmacy directors, pharmacy supervisors and more.The system differs from country to country and can take up to 4 to 6 years.

  5. Initiation in Saudi Arabia: • The PharmD program started at King Abdulaziz Universityin 2001, followed by Ibn-Sina University(2005), KFU(2006), and Qassim University(2007). In 2008, King Saud University, College of Pharmacy in Riyadh, Al-Kharj, and Taif University have started their PharmD programs.

  8. The pharmacy practice residency program may be: • Postgraduate year one (PGY-1) • Postgraduate year two (PGY-2)

  9. Residencies are valuable experiences because they offer a systematic educational focus in a real world setting using a socratic method of teaching . Each residency program is headed by a preceptor who takes personal responsibility for assuring that each resident has a quality learning experience.

  10. Types of pharmacy of residency programs :

  11. Fellowship and traineeships: The important distinction between a residency and a fellowshipis that the residency is practice-oriented while the fellowship has a research focus . Where there might be several residents in a given pharmacy training under one preceptor ,there is usually only one fellow ,thereby further increasing the Socratic style of teaching In recent years, traineeshipshave grown in number and popularity ,as practicing pharmacists have sought ways to enhance their knowledge and skills without interrupting their practices for an extended residency or fellowship . .

  12. Fellowship A pharmacy fellowship, is defined as ‘‘a directed, highly individualized, postgraduate program designed to prepare the participant to become an independent researcher. Pharmacy fellowships prepare pharmacists to become principal investigators. Since research is built on a foundation of skills, pharmacists are expected to come to fellowships having developed relevant basic skills, as through experience in pharmacy practice or in a residency.

  13. PROGRAM ACTIVITIES The fellowship training program will focus on research, training, education, and experiences related to outcomes research and pharmacy informatics. The fellow will be responsible for designing a research proposal, conducting the research, analyzing the data, and preparing and submitting an abstract, manuscript, and presentation of work at a professional or scientific meeting.

  14. In addition the fellow will gain experience in teaching in the academic setting in the field of health care outcomes and pharmacy informatics. The teaching experiences will be integrated within a two-year program

  15. Internship The Pharmacy Student Internship Program is a structured learning program that focuses on the use of cognitive and clinical skills, giving pharmacy students the opportunity to learn first-hand more about the exciting career and professional development opportunities available in managed care pharmacy

  16.

The Mayo Clinic is a not-for-profit medical practice and medical research group based in Rochester, Minnesota. It is the first and largest integrated not-for-profit medical group practice in the world.

  17. The program is offered by the Center for Translational Science Activities (CTSA) in collaboration with Mayo Graduate School. The one-year Post-doctoral Certificate Program includes individualized coursework, a mentored research experience, and the development of a manuscript ready for publication.
