“Post-graduate training is the time to dig deep and intensely push yourself to learn and grow into the best clinician you can be. PBA's PGY1 Community-based Pharmacy Residency incorporates the best of community pharmacy and ambulatory care to provide the complete package in the outpatient experience. Similarly, the Enhanced Community Pharmacy Services Fellowship encourages out-of-the-box thinking to look at community pharmacy in new ways, allowing pharmacists in this setting to practice at the top of their license in ways you may not have the opportunity to see in your pharmacy school curriculum. Most importantly, post-grad at PBA gave me a pharmacy family I can call on for life, and both of these experiences have more than adequately prepared me for my current role as a community pharmacy owner and managing network facilitator of CPESN Mississippi.”
