Description
Huntsville Hospital's PGY1 Residency in Pediatrics is a 12-month program designed to provide specialized training in pediatrics and neonatal pharmacy practice. Our innovative program combines the resources and complexity of an 881-bed regional referral medical center with a free-standing Women and Children's Hospital. The successful candidate will participate in providing pharmaceutical care for patients on the Women and Children's campus as well as being given the opportunity for elective experiences in the adult acute care facility.

Campus
Huntsville Hospital and UAB-Health Center occupy over 40 acres in the heart of Huntsville's Medical District. Huntsville Hospital is a 881-bed regional referral center serving a population of over one million people. The UAB-Health Center consists of approximately 45 medical students and 36 medical residents. Huntsville Hospital and the UAB Medical School operate a modern medical library which is located adjacent to the main Huntsville Hospital facility.

Features of the Women and Children's Hospital include:

• North Alabama's only Level III NICU
• 40 NICU, 40 general peds, and 10 PICU beds
• 16 pediatric sub-specialists
• Pediatric ER
• On-site St. Jude's affiliate outpatient clinic
• Clinical Pharmacist Specialists in PICU and NICU
• Auburn Pharmacy Faculty Member rounding in general pediatrics

Residents also serve as an integral part of our ongoing staff development program and may be asked to deliver didactic lectures at Auburn University School of Pharmacy. Each resident must complete a major project and present the results at the annual Southeastern Residency Conference in Athens, Georgia.

Philosophy
The PGY1 residency in Pediatrics builds on previous education and experience and is directed toward developing expert knowledge and skills in pediatric pharmacy practice. The program is flexible and allows the resident to pursue individual interests and goals.

Electives
Pediatric Residents are given the opportunity to participate in several practice experiences outside pediatrics/neonatology.

Some of these "electives" include:

Application Process
Academic transcripts, letter of intent, curriculum vitae, three letters of reference and an on-site interview are required.
