As a resident you are required to provide formal continuing education presentations during the academic year at the Mayo Clinic Florida Pharmacy Grand Rounds. In addition, you will provide patient case presentations, journal clubs, and lead discussions for the Pharmacotherapy Review Series throughout the year. 

Informal presentations

Given the role of pharmacists serving as a medication expert at the bedside, you are required to deliver informal presentations to the interdisciplinary team that focus on succinct education pearls related to a patient the team is caring for. As a resident, you may have additional presentation requests by the interdisciplinary team while on specific learning experiences.
