Why UNC

I was initially drawn to the residency program at UNC for the progressive pharmacy practice model, but it was the people and core values of the program that ultimately influenced my decision to complete a PGY1 and PGY2 residency here. I knew that the diversity and breadth of rotation opportunities offered, along with the strong research and teaching aspects of this program would shape me into a proficient clinical pharmacist. The strong relationship with the neighboring UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy and layered learning approach was something I was searching for in a program to help me develop and refine my personal teaching and precepting style. I also felt that the emphasis placed on mental health, personal and professional growth within this program was unmatched. It was evident how passionate the Emergency Medicine preceptors were about this program and how highly valued they are within the healthcare team in the ED! Reflecting on the day I interviewed at UNC, I knew instantaneously that this was a program that fit my goals and would make an amazing residency home!
