The Sutter Health PGY2 health system pharmacy administration residency builds upon PGY1 residency graduates’ competence in the delivery of patient-centered care and in pharmacy operational services to prepare residents for future supervisory, managerial, and leadership responsibilities.
Areas of competence emphasized during the program include safe and effective medication-use systems, quality assurance, the management of human and financial resources, use of technology, and advanced leadership. Upon graduation residents are prepared for a clinical or operational supervisory/management role in a variety of work settings including small to mid-size hospitals, large health systems, health plans, and pharmacy benefit management organizations.
Resident’s activities are varied in scope, depending on each individual’s background and areas of interest.
The PGY2 Residency Program at Sutter Health is considered accredited by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists.
