Pharmacy Practice Residency Program

Children's of Minnesota consists of two campuses located in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Residents will gain experience at each campus during their residency. Children's is a major referral site for pediatric patients in the upper Midwest and is also affiliated with the University of Minnesota.

The pharmacy department provides comprehensive clinical services to meet the needs of patients and health care professionals.

The pharmacy practice residency at Children's is designed to provide the resident with a wide variety of clinical and professional experiences in pediatrics. Residents will complete required rotations and have approximately 5 months to complete elective learning experiences in areas of their interest.

Residents will complete a residency project, and participate in department initiatives, hospital committees, and clinical educational programs for patients/families and hospital staff. In addition to on-site educational programs, residents also have the opportunity to teach in a pediatric pharmacotherapy course at the University of Minnesota.
