Program Description
The PGY2 residency in Pain Management and Palliative Care at UW Medicine provides training to develop knowledgeable and skilled practitioners in an area with increasing pharmacy need and demand. Throughout this residency, the resident will work as an integral member of interdisciplinary teams to help provide optimal management of pain and/or palliative care patients. The resident will receive training to become experienced in various acute and chronic (malignant and non-malignant) pain conditions, in addition to rotations for the resident to develop the skills necessary to provide palliative care to patients throughout their illness and at the end-of-life. Rotations will be offered at the University of Washington-Montlake (UWMC-ML), Harborview Medical Center (HMC), and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center (FHCC). There will also be rotations with external organizations, such as hospice, giving the resident opportunities to participate and learn in a variety of well-established pain and palliative care institutions. The resident will be expected to actively participate in the development of leadership skills, education, and research. Graduates of this program will be highly qualified practitioners who are equipped to succeed in a variety of pain management and palliative care positions, in both inpatient and outpatient settings.
