Mount Auburn Hospital

Founded in 1886, Mount Auburn Hospital (MAH) was the first hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is a 217-bed acute care teaching hospital affiliated with Harvard Medical School and is part of Beth Israel Lahey Health (BILH), a 14-hospital health system. The MAH PGY-1 Pharmacy residency is affiliated with Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (MCPHS). MCPHS–Boston is the second oldest pharmacy school in the United States, with a strong commitment to preparing future leaders of the profession of pharmacy.

The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) accredited postgraduate year one (PGY1) Pharmacy Residency Program at MAH provides a unique training experience to develop the resident clinically and professionally. The mission of the residency program is to develop pharmacy care providers for positions in clinical practice, teaching/academia, or advanced practice in a specialized PGY2 training program.

Residents complete nine core rotations, five longitudinal experiences, and two elective rotations, which are tailored to meet individual resident needs and interests. Through the residency program’s strong affiliation with MCPHS, all residents will participate in a robust Teaching Certificate Program and will hold an adjunct teaching appointment in the department of pharmacy practice at the university.

Program Start Date: The residency year runs from late June/early July through the end of June (approximately July 1 through June 30) of each year.
