Elective Experiences

• Critical Care 2
• Transition of Care

Critical Care 2

Critical Care 2 is an elective, direct patient care learning experience focusing on management of post-PCI, open heart surgery, and other cardiovascular conditions. Collaboration with providers and nursing staff focusing on adherence to guideline recommended therapy for congestive heart failure patients. Provide patients with the necessary tools to help manage their disease state with appropriate medication counseling. Training with our ACLS SIMM Man will also be provided.

Transitions of Care

Transitions of care is an elective learning experience designed to give the resident understanding of all phases of patient care before, during and after a patient is admitted to the hospital. This experience will build experience on the role of a pharmacist during multiple transition periods, including hospital admission, hospital discharge, and post-discharge care. Post discharge responsibilities involve assisting patients in getting their medications and/or supplies at home, coordinating with home health care, and coordinating with extended care facilities (ECF) to ensure a smooth transition for patients between these locations.
