Clinical Pharmacist/ Resident Mentor Checklist
Many times residents will learn their role within the organization better if they have a “peer sponsor or
mentor” – a seasoned employee assigned to them to help answer their questions and share with them an
understanding of organizational practices. The mentor may also help to introduce the new resident to
people with whom they will be interacting on a regular basis.
The selection of clinical mentor may be, but not limited to a practice area interest of the resident. The
mentor may include but not necessarily a project preceptor.
The document below is a list of roles and responsibilities of the mentor and the resident during the
residency.
The clinical pharmacist mentor will help facilitate the new resident’s orientation to Hillcrest Hospital’s
operations, and clinical development. The mentor/resident relationship will continue throughout the
duration of the residency.
