At Intermountain Medical Center (IMC), the inpatient pharmacy intern program is a unique setting in which we have a large group of pharmacy students from both pharmacy schools and with students from all years of schooling. As an inpatient pharmacy intern at IMC, your job responsibilities advance as you progress through school. The pharmacy intern program at IMC allows you to experience the full spectrum of inpatient care; from Central Pharmacy operations to medication history collection to managing clinical consults. First year pharmacy interns are typically expected to complete their first year understanding how the hospital functions by working Central Pharmacy Operations. Upon starting their second year, pharmacy interns begin working directly with their patients to collect accurate medication histories. In their final year, pharmacy interns will have the opportunity to staff clinical shifts in which they assist the pharmacists with therapeutic consults, perform medication education, and discharge Transplant patients. An inpatient pharmacy intern position at IMC will also allow you to further develop the skills necessary for a future residency position or for job placement by connecting you with pharmacists who will provide mentorship throughout the program.

Training primarily includes pharmacy automation, non-sterile compounding, as well as medication storage, dispensing and procurement. The pharmacy intern will utilize medication references to assist the pharmacist with clinical questions and medication dispensing while maintaining regulatory standards. Staffing in central pharmacy operations gives the intern exposure to a vast array of medications utilized throughout the entire hospital. The Pharmacy Intern Level II is primarily expected to collect accurate medication histories from admitted patients. Pharmacy interns will staff alongside pharmacists in areas such as Medicine, Cardiology, Critical Care, and the Emergency Department to identify admitted patients who need medication histories collected. Collecting medication histories allows pharmacy interns to interact directly with their patients and learn how to utilize additional resources to complete an accurate list. While completing a medication history, pharmacy interns are encouraged to learn the medications and ask appropriate questions in order to communicate information to the clinical pharmacist. The Pharmacy Intern Level III is primarily expected to collect accurate medication histories from admitted patients and will begin training to staff clinical shifts. Pharmacy interns will staff alongside pharmacists in areas such as Medicine, Cardiology, Critical Care, and the Emergency Department to identify admitted patients who need medication histories collected.

Training will primarily include learning to manage the Collaborative Practice Agreements for insulin, Vancomycin, and Warfarin. Additional training will be provided for medication education and the discharging of newly transplanted patients. The Pharmacy Intern Level IV is expected to both collect accurate medication histories from admitted patients and to staff clinical shifts with a pharmacist.
