Nebraska Medicine brings together the expertise of private practice medicine with the strengths of an academic health center. The many areas of specialization give each resident a variety of experiences, from the critically ill neonate to the cancer patient undergoing blood and marrow transplantation. By combining state-of-the-art research, education and exceptional patient care, we offer the best of both worlds.
The working relationship between Nebraska Medicine and the UNMC College of Pharmacy provides a solid foundation for a quality pharmacy residency program. The program provides an excellent mixture of clinical experiences, one-on-one interaction with faculty and preceptors, and the flexibility to modify the program to meet each resident’s needs. In addition, the residency provides many opportunities for educating and precepting students.
