More than 40 Doctor of Pharmacy students and alumni will continue their education in a residency program or fellowship.
Dr. D. Byron May, chair and professor of Pharmacy Practice, said, “In spite of all the challenges for the 2021 graduates seeking post-graduate residencies and fellowships, 31 students from the CPHS Doctor of Pharmacy program will continue their education upon graduation. This is a remarkable achievement for our students and the faculty who work tirelessly supporting their efforts in seeking post-graduate training.
“I couldn’t be prouder of these students who obtained these positions in a very competitive market. Each year more pharmacy graduates desire post-graduate training and each year CPHS Doctor of Pharmacy students get selected for these opportunities at a very high percentage. I commend all involved and wish our graduates the utmost success as Campbell University Doctor of Pharmacy Graduates.”
In addition to the 31 students, 10 alumni also matched with a PGY-2 residency.
Jacob Risen (’21 PharmD Candidate) matched with a residency at Firsthealth of the Carolinas/Moore Regional Hospital in Pinehurst, NC. He said, “After completing the first three years of pharmacy school at CPHS, I knew a PGY-1 residency is something I truly desired after graduation to not only further develop my skills as a clinical pharmacist, but to acquire experiences and training on how to provide the upmost care for future patients.
“Upon receiving my match results, I knew that all the hard work and dedication put forth was worthwhile and could not have been possible without the help of my faculty advisor, preceptors, and teachers. As I progress towards my aspirations of becoming an infectious disease pharmacist, I will always be thankful to CPHS for helping me achieve my career goals as they have done for so many others.”
These Campbell University pharmacy graduates will specialize in areas such as pharmacotherapy, community pharmacy, health system administration & leadership, managed care, acute care, critical care, pediatric, psychiatric, ambulatory care, internal medicine, medication use safety and policy, and general pharmacy.
“I’m thrilled to be moving back to my home state of Florida for my PGY-1 at Baptist Hospital – Pensacola,” said Kaitlin Shields (’21 PharmD Candidate). “I am confident Baptist will challenge me to grow as a pharmacist and will help me gain a strong clinical knowledge base before pursuing a PGY2 in oncology.”
Their post-graduate training will continue in 10 states including California, Florida, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia. The majority of these residents will continue their training in North Carolina with 26 graduates matching in the Tar Heel State.
