Program Overviews
Programs offered at OhioHealth Grant Medical Center and OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital — build on Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) education and outcomes in the delivery of patient-centered care and in pharmacy operational services.
A PGY2 health-system pharmacy administration and leadership residency builds upon PGY1 residency graduates’ competence in the delivery of patient-centered care and in pharmacy operational services to prepare residents who can assume high level managerial, supervisory, and leadership responsibilities. Areas of competence emphasized during the program include safe and effective medication-use systems, quality assurance and improvement, the management of human resources, the management of financial resources, use of technology, and advanced leadership. The residency lays the foundation for continued growth in management and leadership skills. Upon graduation, residents are prepared for a clinical or operational management/supervisory role in a variety of work settings.

The 24-month Health System Pharmacy Administration and Leadership (HSPAL) residency program at OhioHealth Grant Medical Center and OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital is tailored to fulfill residents’ individual interests and goals within ASHP accreditation standards.
PGY1 requirements must be accomplished in the first 15 months of residency. A variety of elective inpatient and ambulatory administrative experiences are available based on resident interest.

Didactic work at The Ohio State University affords opportunities for networking with the Ohio State alumni and Latiolais Leadership Program. Residents will gain exposure to a true health system environment as part of the OhioHealth care system, which is comprised of 15 hospitals and over 200 ambulatory care sites. This exposure to health-system management differentiates our residency program.
HSPAL residents are active members of the leadership team and pursue activities that will collectively impact the practice of pharmacy. We believe this experience creates the greatest opportunity for residents to make a significant impact after their residency in the environment of health-system pharmacy and accountable care organization.
