KEY ROTATIONS/EXPERIENCES
KEY ROTATIONS/EXPERIENCESThe OSUMC has many opportunities for rounding on a cardiology-based service. The residents will be responsible for participation in clinical pharmacy rounding services with direct patient care responsibilities in a variety of settings. Most of the services are teaching services and may be composed of an attending physician, a fellow, and house staff (including residents, interns, and advanced practice providers). The resident will strengthen his/her clinical acumen and communication skills through completing at least one rotation on each required service. The remaining rotations will be determined based on the resident’s goals and the discretion of the residency program director.
