Welcome to the 12-month PGY1 Pharmacy Practice Residency Program at AdventHealth Daytona Beach! AdventHealth Daytona Beach has 362-beds with an additional stand-alone Emergency Department in Port Orange, and is one of seven hospitals in Flagler, St. Johns and Volusia counties that composes the AdventHealth East Florida Division. We became the first facility across these counties to earn the DNV Comprehensive Stroke Center, recognizing our expertise in treating serious stroke events. In June 2024, we began a multi-million-dollar expansion project to add 104 inpatient beds, new surgical suites, and more than 240,000 square feet to our campus by 2026 – including a brand-new pharmacy department! With more than 100,000 team members, AdventHealth is one of the nation’s largest faith-based health care systems with over 50 hospitals and hundreds of care sites in nearly a dozen states. With the mission of Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ, AdventHealth Daytona Beach provides whole person care to heal the body, mind and spirit.
Our ASHP-accredited PGY1 pharmacy residency program at AdventHealth Daytona Beach began in 2021 with our first inaugural residency class graduating in 2022. Our training program is designed to develop essential knowledge and skills for health-system pharmacy. PGY1 pharmacy residency programs build on Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) education and outcomes to contribute to the development of clinical pharmacists responsible for medication-related care of patients with a wide range of conditions, eligible for board certification, and eligible for postgraduate year two (PGY2) pharmacy residency training. This program specifically affords residents the opportunity to participate in acute care, inpatient and ambulatory care settings throughout the residency year.
The residency program expands both clinical and staffing services at our facility and augments the excellent pharmacy staff we currently have. Residents will participate in a decentralized pharmacy model and work with multidisciplinary patient care teams, monitor responses to drug therapy, optimize care to provide evidence-based pharmacotherapy recommendations to improve patient outcomes, and attend medical emergency codes. Residents who complete the residency program will develop the critical thinking skills necessary to provide patient-focused care and become confident, independent clinicians in the health care team.
Thank you for your interest in the PGY1 Pharmacy Residency at AdventHealth Daytona Beach. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.
