A residency is a postgraduate training program, which allows the resident to perform as a licensed practitioner but to train under the supervision of an experienced preceptor. The cornerstones of any pharmacy practice residency include direct patient care and practice management. Tony Guerra & Todd Eury talk about the state of pharmacy residency and what the future holds for the current process and the statistics based on pharmacy school enrollment & the changes technology is making in the residency process.
