March 22, 2019 Dear Residents, On behalf of the CCIRH Department of Pharmacy, I would like to welcome you to your post-graduate training program. We are committed to the provision of an outstanding residency training program. As a community hospital, we offer a variety of experiences designed to prepare you for the various roles in pharmacy practice. The goal of this residency program will be the development of practical clinical and operational skills that will prepare you for future employment or a PGY-2 Residency. We will delegate to you both clinical and operational responsibilities under the guidance of our experienced pharmacy staff. You will refine your teaching and leadership skills by working in a multidisciplinary environment with patients, caregivers, nurses, physicians, as well as students from colleges of medicine, pharmacy and nursing. You will participate in multi-disciplinary patient care activities to further develop your problem-solving skills and the ability to work with other healthcare providers. Preceptors will establish minimum expectations as laid out in the syllabi for your performance during rotations. However, you should strive to surpass these minimum expectations. You will be encouraged to work with as much independence as desired and achievable. The year ahead of you will be busy and challenging, but I am confident that benefit from our residency program and achieve great success. I am excited to work with you over the next year. Best Regards, Nicole Brooks, PharmD, BCACP, CACP Residency Program Director

1.0 General

1.1 Definition

Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital (CCIRH) Postgraduate Year One training (PGY-1) Pharmacy Residency Program is a 12-month program developed to meet and exceed all pharmacy practice standards established by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists. This residency training program is designed to develop the resident’s clinical expertise and education in a variety of pharmacy practice areas.

1.2 Philosophy and Purpose

The growth of pharmacy practice and the utilities of a pharmacist are substantially increasing throughout many institutions. Many more physicians rely on the expertise of a pharmacist for therapeutic and pharmacologic decisions. Therefore, in order to provide the most comprehensive pharmaceutical care in all areas of pharmacy practice, it is essential for pharmacy graduates to have formal training. Pharmacy residencies serve as one of the best modalities for pharmacy graduates to obtain practical pharmacy skills. Under the guidance from preceptors, residents will have the opportunity to apply and integrate pharmaceutical care principles in the care of patients. PGY1 Program Purpose: PGY1 pharmacy residency programs build on Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) education and outcomes to contribute to the development of clinical pharmacists responsible for medication-related care of patients with a wide range of conditions, eligible for board certification, and eligible for postgraduate year two (PGY2) pharmacy residency training.

1.3 ASHP Residency Accreditation

In order to provide universal post-graduate training and to ensure complete competency on pharmaceutical practice, ASHP has set standards for residency programs. The residency must pursue compliance with these standards in order to maintain accreditation. CCIRH PGY-1 Pharmacy Practice Residency Program became an accredited program by ASHP in October 2008.

1.4 Qualifications of Resident

As per ASHP requirements for pharmacy residents, the resident must be a graduate of a college or school of pharmacy accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) or otherwise approved to participate in the ASHP match program through PhORCAS.

NOTE: 1. Residency applicants must currently be authorized to work in the United States. Cleveland Clinic Pharmacy does not sponsor applicants for work Visas. 2. Appointments of applicants to residency positions may be contingent upon the applicants satisfying certain eligibility requirements [e.g., graduating from accredited college of pharmacy, obtaining pharmacist license in Ohio (for Ohio sites) or Florida (for Florida sites) within 90 days of start date, and successful completion of a pre-employment physical and drug screen, including testing for cotinine]. 3. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate OPT (Optional Practical Training) Visas for the Cleveland Clinic Pharmacy Residency Program as the program extends beyond 12 months. 4. The Cleveland Clinic Pharmacy Residency Program does not meet the qualifications of an OPT STEM employer because Cleveland Clinic is not enrolled in E-Verify. Program will not consider applicants with GPA less than _____3.25_________ Program will not consider applicants from pass/fail schools

Candidate Interview process: Selected Residency applicants will be interviewed as per ASHP standards on a formal, criteria-based process. Candidates will be evaluated and ranked on their academic performance, professional activities, skills, attitudes, ability to obtain outcome goals, references, on-site interview, and case review. Resident candidates should be prepared to participate in a patient case review. The selection of candidates to be ranked will be made based on the consensus of the RAC. The National Matching Service finalizes candidate selection.

1.7 Resident Statement of Agreement

Prior to start of the residency program, the resident will be asked to sign a Resident Statement of Agreement which outlines expectations of the resident during the year as well as benefits the resident will receive. Please refer to Appendix A of this manual for a copy of the Residency Agreement.

2.0 General Information

2.1 Residency Overview

PGY -1Pharmacy Residencies are formal training programs that focus on the development of practice skills in a variety of pharmacy practice areas. All residents are involved in service, education, and research activities. The residency will be tailored to the individual needs of the resident.

Education and Training- Residency programs allow time for residents to pursue and achieve defined educational outcomes set by ASHP. In addition, residents will be involved in teaching healthcare students, pharmacy staff, nurses, and medical practitioners.

Pharmacy Operations- Residents will partake in pharmacy services. Residents will be held responsible and accountable for the provision of various clinical services and/or distributive services provided in practice areas of the pharmacy.

2.2 Residency Benefits

Resident Stipend: $ 40,000 Paid-Time-Off (PTO)- Refer to Appendix I. Twelve (12) days may be used by the resident at their discretion for vacation, holidays, interviews, and short term illness. No more than 20% of a given rotation may be taken off unless prior approval is given by the RPD. A maximum six (6) approved conference days are not considered personal days and are in addition to these twelve (12) days.

Page 9: Residency Manual 2020-2021 - ccirh.org

9

Resident is encouraged to maximize their amount of time on their particular rotation. Missing 20% or more of a rotation will require either make-up time at the end of the residency or a repeat of the rotation as an elective. Residents taking leave greater than paid leave allowed (i.e, “time-off” days) cannot be awarded a residency certificate unless additional leave is made up.

i For example, if a resident needs to take a leave of absence and they have 12 days of “time off,” they can use the 12 days and then will need to make up the remaining days taken on the leave of absence [i.e., a resident takes 4 weeks leave or 20 work calendar days leave of absence, they will be required to make-up 8 days for the residency at the end of the year].

If a resident taking a leave of absence exhausts all of their permitted days off (i.e., 12 days “time off”), they will need to take unpaid leave, unless eligible for Short Term Disability pay, per Human Resources Benefits eligibility guidelines. Make-up Time for Absences 1. Leave of absence(s) may extend the training period to reach an acceptable level of performance in order to graduate from the program. The resident must complete 12 months of residency. 2. Any leave greater than or equal to 7 calendar days will require the resident to make-up missed time. a. Leave of absence time must be completed within 6 months of the date the program was scheduled to be completed, or the resident forfeits the privilege of receiving the Certificate of Completion of the program. Upon returning from leave, hours will be paid and must be: worked under the guidance of a preceptor, equal to the hours missed, and used to complete the requirements not yet achieved. All requests for time-off must be submitted in writing to the rotation preceptor, RPD, and Director of Pharmacy 4 weeks prior to and are subject to their approval. The resident is required to arrange coverage of any activities missed as a result of the request. Extended Leave of Absence Refer to Appendix H. In the event that a resident requires an extended leave of absence for personal leave, extended sick leave or medical leave, it is the resident’s responsibility to ensure that all paperwork is completed and turned into Human Resources. The time away from the residency program due to a leave of absence must be completed at the end of the residency. Each case will be reviewed by the Residency Advisory Committee for evaluation. The resident will be able to return and complete the residency off cycle as long as the leave of absence is approved through Human Resources and does not exceed six months.

Health Insurance- The resident will receive health care benefits according to the CCIRH employee policy as entitled for a full-time employee of the Department of Pharmacy.

Professional Meetings- Residents will receive reimbursement pursuant to Human Resources policy (Appendix L) for expenses incurred during attendance at the following conferences:

1.) ASHP Clinical Midyear Meeting 2.) Florida Residency Conference

Procedures for submitting reimbursement for professional meetings: 1.) Prior to Travel (no less than 2 weeks prior) obtain “Request for Travel” form

a. Gather program materials, sample flights, hotel reservations, etc. and attach to form. b. Submit form to RPD for review and further instructions

2.) After travel has occurred: a. Obtain “Travel Expense Form” and complete all necessary information. b. Receipts of events must be organized by day and taped to a 8” X 11” paper. c. Forms are to be submitted to the RPD and Director of Pharmacy. d. Forms must be signed by the Administrator or Vice President over Pharmacy

Page 10: Residency Manual 2020-2021 - ccirh.org

Each resident will assist with the recruitment efforts of the department at the residency showcases. Residents are expected to prepare and staff the residency showcase or any other function that involves recruitment, unless given permission otherwise.

Affiliated College of Pharmacy Online References- See Residency Director and/or Preceptor

2.3 Pharmacist Licensure

The resident must obtain Florida pharmacist licensure within 90 days of the start day of the residency program. Failure to obtain licensure within the first 90 days will result in dismissal from the program.

2.4 Required Meetings

The resident will be required to attend a number of meetings throughout the year. Other meetings may be required by specific rotations. These meetings must be coordinated with each preceptor. Exceptions to this are if the resident is staffing or if there is a patient care issue which takes precedence and must be addressed immediately.

1. Pharmacy & Therapeutics Committee 2. Department Meetings 3. Continuous Quality Improvement

2.5 Staffing Requirements

The resident will be required to work a minimum of 40 hours per week for at least 52 weeks. However, it is understood that the resident will likely need to work greater than 40 hours to facilitate all patient care responsibilities. Specific hours will depend upon the individual needs of the rotation and will be determined by each preceptor at the beginning of the rotation. Unless otherwise specified by the preceptor, the resident will be expected to report to the main pharmacy by 0700. Residents are expected to punch in at the beginning of every shift and punch out prior to leaving for the day. While on the Ambulatory Care rotation residents are expected to punch in and report to the clinic by 0745.

The residents are responsible for their assigned staffing service, and are responsible for assuring that these service commitments are met in the event of an unforeseen absence. Paid time off cannot be used in place of staffing requirements. If a resident requests PTO on a scheduled staffing weekend, it is his/her responsibility to make arrangements with the other resident(s). In order to ensure competence in this role, residents will work under the supervision of another pharmacist during the orientation/training period. Residents are responsible for reviewing every pharmacotherapy consult with the assigned clinical pharmacist at completion of the initial consult and before any notes are placed in the chart or any verbal recommendations are made. All notes must be co-signed by a clinical staff pharmacist during the training period. After the training period, as the resident displays the necessary clinical skills and provided that licensure was obtained, the resident will transition to practice as an independent pharmacist. Residents will participate in every other weekend staffing during the required operational pharmacy practice I & II experiences for a total of at least 20 weekends worked over the program year. Residents are expected to arrive no later than 0700 and work until at least 1530. The resident may have a project day on the Monday after staffing the weekend. In order to minimize time away from the residency rotation, this day will not be offered in lieu of another residency obligation which will take the resident away from their rotation during the pay period week. The resident may choose to work at home on these project days provided there is not another event scheduled that week which will take the resident away from their assigned rotation. The resident will coordinate with the rotation preceptor and RPD prior to each staffing weekend to ensure there are no conflicts which would preclude the resident from working from home.

2.6 CCIRH Policies and Procedures

The CCIRH Employee Policies and Procedures will be reviewed by the resident during the orientation period. Residents are subject to all of CCIRH Policies and Procedures. Electronic documentation of Policies and Procedures are available on the CCIRH intranet. Important policies to be reviewed prior to starting the residency are included in the appendixes.

2.7 Resident Holidays

One resident will be assigned to work on each designated holiday. Resident will provide pharmacy service coverage on holidays similar to weekend coverage.

a. New Year's Day b. Memorial Day c. Labor Day d. Thanksgiving Day e. December 25th (Christmas Day)

2.8 Duty Hours

Duty hours must be limited to 80 hours per week averaged over a four-week period as to comply with ASHP Accreditation Standards for Pharmacy Residents. Residents will be instructed in and required to electronically log all hours worked at the facility.

The RPD and/or the Director of Pharmacy must approve all outside employment. External employment or “Moonlighting” should be carefully chosen as to not interfere with the ability of the resident to achieve the educational goals and objectives of the residency program. The residency program schedule will not be modified to accommodate moonlighting. Any hours worked moonlighting will be reported to the RPD on a weekly basis. Duty hours including external employment must be limited to 80 hours per week.

3.1 Syllabus with Learning Experiences and Required Readings Prior to beginning each rotation or learning experience residents are to obtain a copy of the syllabus. It is the responsibility of the resident to coordinate and fulfill the objectives set forth by the syllabus. Residents are required to make arrangements to meet and discuss an upcoming rotation with the preceptor at least 1 week prior to starting any new rotation. The purpose is for resident and preceptor to discuss expectations, syllabus, readings, schedule, etc. The resident is also required to make

Page 12: Residency Manual 2020-2021 - ccirh.org

12

arrangements with preceptor within 7 days of end of the previous month to discuss evaluations for that particular experience. The resident and preceptor should complete a pre-rotation checklist prior to the start of each rotation. The resident will discuss their personal goals for the rotation as well as any feedback received from the previous rotation. The resident and preceptor will customize the rotation plan and activities for the new rotation to account for the resident’s interests, strengths, and weaknesses. At the end of the rotation, an end-rotation checklist will be completed where the resident and preceptor will exchange feedback regarding the rotation and identify strengths and areas for improvement to be carried over to the next rotation.

3.2 Required Clinical Rotations

ASHP Residency Accreditation Standards (Appendix F) require PGY-1 residents to achieve satisfactory remarks in four (4) competency areas and all associated educational goals and objectives. (Standard 3.2 of the ASHP Accreditation Standard for Postgraduate Year One Pharmacy Residency Programs):

Competency Evaluation: the resident will present a minimum 3 question quiz during each presentation. The quiz may be presented either verbally during the presentation or in writing. Residents will be evaluated on their presentations using the form Appendix D. Areas to be evaluated include material presented, appropriateness of handouts, presentation style, and the ability to answer questions regarding the topic. The preceptor and RPD will collect evaluation forms and give feedback to the resident after the presentation. Evaluation forms are to be included in the resident binder.

5.2.2 Topic Discussions

The purpose of the topic discussion is to provide the residents with a forum focused on various disease states, evidence based medicine, and treatment related issues pertaining to pharmaceutical care of CCIRH patients. These discussions will supplement the practical and clinical education the residents will receive during their rotations. Topic discussions are to be held at the discretion of the rotation preceptor and will be discussed and scheduled at the pre-rotation meeting in advance of the rotation. Either the resident or preceptor may lead the topic discussion. Pharmacy students can participate. If the topic discussion is led by the resident, the resident should include documentation in the form of meeting minutes in their residency binder.

5.2.3 Journal Club

Competence in medical literature review is an important skill for clinical pharmacists to have in order to provide appropriate interpretations of the data.

Pharmacy residents are required to present an article to the pharmacy at least four times per residency year. General dates will be placed on the residency calendar. Journal club provides the resident with opportunity to present a current article that addresses drug or

disease related problems. The presentation should be no longer than 30 minutes including discussion. The format should include the following:

a. Study or article objective b. Study Design c. Methods d. Biostatical appropriateness e. Results f. Application to practice

Resident is encouraged to explain the biostatistics The presentation should be informal. The article chosen by the resident must be given to the RPD at least one week prior to the presentation.

6.0 Residency Project

6.1 Purpose

One of the required outcomes of the ASHP Residency Standards is that the resident demonstrates project management skills. A residency project helps the resident develop and justify new services or build upon existing ones. The resident is afforded the opportunity to develop research, project management, and writing skills. The residency project may vary depending on the needs of the hospital and the interest(s) of the individual resident.

6.2 Selection of Residency Project

During the month of orientation & training, the resident must select their project from a list generated by the RPD, Director of Pharmacy, and/or preceptors. The RPD will make every effort to provide opportunity for research projects that align with each resident’s individual interests and that will be sustainable, feasible, and beneficial to the facility. Towards the end of the residency and prior to the Florida Residency Conference (FRC), residents are required to give formal presentations to the pharmacy staff on their residency project.

6.2.1 Project Advisor

The RPD and resident will select a member of the staff to act as a Project Advisor. The Project Advisor will act as a resource and help to facilitate the project.

6.2.2 Project Time Line After a project has been selected and approved, the resident, Project Advisor, and RPD will develop a time line outlining key deadlines. The time line will include the following:

a. Title b. Purpose c. Date to complete writing the proposal or outline of project d. Date of submission to IRB, if applicable e. Date of implementation or start f. Target date of completion g. Target dates for presentation h. Target date for submission for publication (not required, but encouraged)

6.2.3 Project Presentation

It is expected that residents will present their project in a poster format at the ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting. Resident must identify appropriate deadlines for submission. A formal PowerPoint presentation is generally made at the Florida Residency Conference. If the resident is unable to attend either of these meetings, then the resident will discuss alternative forums for presentation with the RPD.

8.0 Evaluations

The evaluation process is an important component to residency programs. The feedback the resident receives during these evaluations is meant to assist and develop the resident in achieving the goals of the residency program but also it aids in completing the resident’s personal goals. Prior to completing any online evaluation, the preceptor and resident will meet to discuss the end rotation checklist which will include verbal feedback reflected in the evaluation. Also, it is important that the resident complete an evaluation on the preceptor and rotation in order for the residency program to grow. Evaluations will be made based on the Outcomes/Goals/Objectives set forth in each of the rotational or longitudinal experiences. In addition, the resident will be evaluated on all presentations and small projects. Residents will be required to use PharmAcademic™ for the evaluation process.

Resident Evaluation- The resident will be evaluated by the preceptor(s) for a particular learning experience based on the learning goals and objectives set forth prior to the learning experience.

Page 21: Residency Manual 2020-2021 - ccirh.org

21

Resident Self-Evaluation: The Rresident will evaluate him/herself for a particular learning experience based on the learning goals and objectives set forth prior to the learning experience. Learning Experience Evaluation- This is an opportunity for the resident to evaluate and to provide feedback to the preceptor(s) and the residency director on the learning experience provided. Information that is given will be used for upcoming rotations or other residency classes. Preceptor Evaluation- The resident is to provide a written evaluation for the assigned preceptor. This will aid in the preceptor to identify strengths and weaknesses in order for them to improve later in the residency year or other residency classes.

. It is the resident’s Responsibility to ensure ALL evaluations are completed within 7 days of the end of the learning experience. It is the resident’s responsibility to set up a meeting with preceptor to discuss evaluations. Evaluations should not be submitted until resident and Preceptor have meeting one on one to discuss all evaluations. Evaluation Responsibilities and Deadlines Resident Evaluations Due Date:
