What drew you to Mobile Infirmary/why did you choose our program? I completed an APPE rotation at North Baldwin Infirmary and had the privilege
of shadowing several pharmacists within the Infirmary Health System. Their
mentorship was outstanding, fostering a learning environment that inspired
me to pursue a residency. Upon researching the program, I discovered it
offers a longitudinal infectious diseases core learning experience, aligning
with my current interest. Additionally, the program’s variety of
learning experiences provides a foundation that I believe will shape me
into a well-rounded pharmacist.

Research: Prophylactic Enoxaparin Dosing Strategies in Obese Patients
Areas of Interest: Cardiology, Critical Care
What drew you to Mobile Infirmary/Why did you choose our program? When looking for a residency program, I wanted to match with a program
associated with a large institution that offered a wide variety of experiences
that would mimic my interests in pharmacy. I also wanted to be involved
in a program that had a very supportive/encouraging staff that would be
willing to push me in my education and further my goals in my occupation.
From just the surface, Mobile Infirmary looked like the perfect program
that matched my interests. After meeting some of the staff in my interview
to now being a part of the team, it is more than I could have ever wanted
for a residency. The knowledge of the staff and how well they communicate
with each other and the residents allows for a tremendous educational
experience. The added bonuses of this residency program are the numerous
electives residents are allowed to choose from to further their own personal
interests as well as dive into certain areas of pharmacy they have not
considered prior.

Research: Opiate Use and Length of Stay With and Without Exparel
Areas of Interest: Oncology and pediatrics
What drew you to Mobile Infirmary/why did you choose our program? While completing P4 rotations at Mobile Infirmary, I learned about the
non-traditional PGY1 residency program MIMC offered, which is a really
unique opportunity not many other places offer. I am interested in becoming
an oncology pharmacist and Mobile Infirmary has lots of opportunities
and continues to grow in that area.

Courtney Ellison, PharmD
Pharmacy Education: Auburn University College of Pharmacy
Hometown: Wilmer, AL
Research: Auto-verification Resulting In Medication Errors Or Near Misses
Areas of Interest: Oncology and Critical Care
What drew you to Mobile Infirmary/why did you choose our program? Throughout pharmacy school, I had multiple rotations at Mobile Infirmary
where I established friendly connections and enjoyed the environment created
by pharmacy department. I knew I wanted to work here and was able to acquire
a position as an operational pharmacist after graduation in 2022. When
I heard the news about the nontraditional residency being re-established,
I quickly applied because I wanted to develop my clinical knowledge after
not matching during the 2022 pharmacy residency match. The unique opportunity
offered allows me to navigate my path to becoming a well-rounded clinical
pharmacist with opportunities in my areas of interest.
