"I chose MMCR because of its wide range of opportunities for clinical growth in a supportive environment. As a level II trauma center covering a geographical region the size of New Jersey, this hospital sees a wide variety of and complex patients. The opportunity to work in critical access, oncology, and precepting students also interested me in the program. The culture of this hospital also drew me to the program. Pharmacists here are well respected and utilized for our expertise. Within pharmacy itself, I have been impressed by the welcoming culture and safe work environment that has been fostered here. Redding itself is a great mix of urban and rural culture and retains a small-town friendliness that is harder to find in metro areas. There is great access to the outdoors including lakes, rivers, waterfalls, hiking trails, and campgrounds, as well as several National Parks within weekend-trip driving range. I applied to MMCR’s residency program for both the opportunity and community, and have not been disappointed."

"I chose MMCR for the variety of experiences this residency program offers and the great pharmacy team. I wanted to explore my interest in infectious disease as well as oncology. MMCR’s curriculum aligned well with my interests offering oncology and infectious diseases/critical care as a core rotation. Also, I was intrigued by the critical access core rotation where we are able to serve a more rural community, a largely unique experience! In addition, everyone on the pharmacy team felt very welcoming and it was easy to adjust to the new program with the abundance of help I’ve received from everyone. I strongly believe MMCR is a wonderful place to cultivate my clinical skills in order to become a well rounded clinical pharmacist."

"I chose MMCR because the residency program is exceptionally well-rounded. As a level II trauma center with a level III NICU, the hospital offers a unique mix of patient diversity and complex cases. Additionally, MMCR is a major referral center for Northern California, which provides a wealth of opportunities for residents to thrive and make a meaningful impact on the community. Growing up in Mississippi, I enjoyed being part of a tight knit community. Redding offers the perfect balance of city and small-town lifestyles, allowing for friendly interactions without compromising patient diversity necessary for professional development. Moreover, I like the additional opportunities in infectious diseases, oncology, critical access, and informatics to further broaden my learning experience. The mission and collaborative patient-centered approach align with my personal values. As a resident, I enjoy working in an environment that actively values and encourages my development, aiming to shape me into the best pharmacist and provider I can be."

"I chose MMCR’s PGY1 program because of the welcoming culture and multifaceted experiences I was looking for in a residency program. Being a level II trauma center and a referral center for Northern California, there are unique opportunities to serve a diverse patient population of high acuity and complexity. MMCR offers a variety of clinical rotations such as emergency medicine, pediatrics, and critical access which align and would allow me to explore my interests within critical care. Most importantly, I am so grateful to work alongside an abundance of passionate mentors who are dedicated to developing future pharmacy leaders. Since moving to Redding, there has been tremendous support from all the members of the pharmacy team in helping to further develop my clinical knowledge and skills to become a well rounded clinical pharmacist."
