The episode discusses the evolving field of community pharmacy and the experiences of residents in a PGY-1 community-based pharmacy residency program.

With the field of pharmacy evolving, community practice has started to adapt clinical services into its practice setting. New practice services also mean new opportunities for new graduates and residency opportunities.

Ambulatory Care Academy PGY1 representative, Elizabeth Satterwhite, PharmD, interviews current residents Alicia Stark, PharmD and Vivian Lee, PharmD on their day to day life as residents in this program as well as considerations for what it means to be in a community pharmacy residency.
