Positions held by graduates of ASHP-accredited pharmacy residency programs.
Current positions of graduates of ASHP-accredited residency programs were determined in an April 1983 survey of the directors of 154 ASHP-accredited residency programs. For each residency graduate (RG), respondents indicated one of 16 employment categories. Data were grouped according to number of years since completion of the residency. Responses were received from 122 directors (79%), representing 2522 RGs. The percentage of RGs in pharmacy directorships increased from 4% one to two years after graduation to 27% after 10 years. After 10 years, 49% were employed in institutional pharmacy practice and 80% in some health-related activity. Most RGs currently practice in institutional pharmacy settings or hold positions in other fields that enable them to build on their institutional pharmacy background.
