| General Description Saint Joseph Health System is proud to offer two Pharmacy Resident positions in a 52 week, ASHP
accredited, PGY2 Ambulatory Care pharmacy residency program. This residency is conducted
primarily within Saint Joseph Health System Family Medicine Center which also houses our Family
Medicine residency program, as well as primary care offices of our physician network. The residency
year is comprised of both elective and required experiences combined in a quarterly format in
addition to elective block rotations. Yep, we know it's nontraditional. Feel free to ask us
