UK HealthCare Pharmacy Residency Programs
PGY1 Programs
From ambulatory to critical care, PGY1 residents will gain a breadth of clinical pharmacy experience in a variety of areas.
Combined PGY1/PGY2 Programs
UKHC offers two combined PGY1/PGY2 programs, Health Systems Pharmacy Administration and Leadership (HSPAL) and Specialty Pharmacy Administration and Leadership (SPAL).
PGY2 Programs
PGY2s gain a depth of understanding in their area of clinical interest, as well as strengthen their teaching and research skills. We offer residencies in 12 clinical pharmacy specialties.
We wish to remember and honor those who inhabited this Commonwealth before the arrival of the Europeans. Briefly occupying these lands were the Osage, Wyndott tribe, and Miami peoples. The Adena and Hopewell peoples, who are recognized by the naming of the time period in which they resided here, were here more permanently. Some of their mounds remain in the Lexington area, including at UK’s Adena Park.
In more recent years, the Cherokee occupied southeast Kentucky, the Yuchi southwest Kentucky, the Chickasaw extreme western Kentucky and the Shawnee central Kentucky including what is now the city of Lexington. The Shawnee left when colonization pushed through the Appalachian Mountains. Lower Shawnee Town ceremonial grounds are still visible in Greenup County.
We honor the first inhabitants who were here, respect their culture, and acknowledge the presence of their descendants who are here today in all walks of life including fellow pharmacists and healthcare professionals.
