Advanced (Year 2) Pharmacy Residency Programs

Programs Description

The LMPS Advanced (Year 2) Pharmacy Residency Programs are advanced institutional pharmacy training programs focused on providing pharmacy clinicians experiential training in specialized clinical practice, leadership, teaching, and research.

The programs are designed to provide innovative and challenging opportunities for pharmacists to experience practice and care in a variety of settings encompassed by our large urban and rural university-affiliated health regions and partners: Vancouver Coastal Health, Providence Health Care, Fraser Health, and Provincial Health Services Authority.

Four unique programs are offered for the 2024-2025 academic year including:

Internal Medicine

Critical Care

Pediatrics

Mental Health and Substance Use

These programs were designed based on the Canadian Pharmacy Residency Board accreditation standards for Advanced (Year 2) Pharmacy Residencies. Each specialty undergoes accreditation separately.  The Critical Care program received accreditation in 2020 and the Internal Medicine and Pediatrics programs in 2021. Mental Health and Substance Use program will seek CPRB Accreditation in Fall 2024/Spring 2025.  Program accreditation is retroactive to prior program graduates and all successful graduates may use the ACPR2 designation.
