Most pharmacy residency programs lack a chief resident. Larger programs are more likely to have or want a chief resident to manage leadership and administrative tasks.

Area of Science:

  • Pharmacy education
  • Residency training
  • Leadership development

Background:

  • Chief resident positions are not standardized in pharmacy residency programs.
  • Understanding the prevalence and roles of chief residents is crucial for program development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the frequency of chief resident positions in pharmacy residency programs.
  • To describe the roles and responsibilities of chief residents.
  • To assess the interest of residency program directors (RPDs) in chief residency programs.

Main Methods:

  • A web-based questionnaire was distributed to RPDs identified through professional directories.
  • The survey assessed the current existence of chief resident positions and interest in developing them.

  • Data were analyzed to identify factors associated with chief residency programs.

    • Main Results:

    • 28.4% of responding institutions had a chief resident or similar leadership role.
    • Key duties included liaison between residents and RPDs, coordinating meetings, and managing schedules.
    • 72.7% of RPDs expressed interest in management and leadership training for residents; 22% of those without a chief resident were interested in establishing one.

    Conclusions:

    • The majority of pharmacy residency programs do not currently have a chief resident.
    • Larger programs are more likely to have or consider establishing a chief resident position.
    • There is significant interest in developing leadership and management skills among pharmacy residents.
