Bayview Post-Graduate Year One Pharmacy Residency Program
The ASHP-accredited Pharmacy Residency Program at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center has a strong focus on patient care, education and research, which are hallmarks of the mission shared by Johns Hopkins Medicine. The program has received national recognition from American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP), with an expansion grant to further grow an already successful program. Residents have graduated and become leaders in oncology, critical care, ambulatory care and internal medicine with premier medical centers across the country.
Established in 2002, the program has consistently played an integral role in the promotion of clinical pharmacy services and research, expansion of clinical programs, and interdisciplinary collaboration within the Johns Hopkins Health System (JHHS) and the Johns Hopkins Bayview community. The program has developed strong professional relationships with partner Johns Hopkins Medicine residency programs and neighboring residency programs, as well as area colleges of pharmacy, thus fostering professional growth and strengthening post-graduate training.
