Pharmacotherapy
Summary
Experience is the best teacher. Learn from someone who’s been there. In this book, I share my real-world experiences and scenarios as a clinical pharmacist to help you get a better grasp on medication management. I’ve been acknowledged in the Wall Street Journal, American Journal of Nursing, National Association Directors of Nursing, Pharmacy Times, and Pharmacy Today. My goal is to teach you clinical common sense when it comes to medications. This is a book full of clinical pearls, case studies, and medication mistakes that every healthcare professional involved in medical management should know. If you’re passionate about learning more about polypharmacy, drug interactions, medication therapy management, and common medication mistakes, you’re going to love this book.

Crushing the Phase 2 Pharmacy Residency Match
Summary
If you’re reading this, it’s likely that either you didn't get an interview, or you feel "Residency Match Day" was one of the worst days of your life. However, there is, if you get an interview invitation, a one-in-five chance to still earn a residency position this year. That number goes up dramatically if you use some of the techniques in this book that puts you not only ahead of the game, but ahead of the curve. A successful phase-two match doesn’t come from luck, but from a series of correct steps that make your chance of matching much more likely. With only a few days between the results of the phase-one match and PhORCAS opening for applications, it’s better you listen to this book beforehand, as a “just in case”. While many will enter phase two, many cannot. Whether it is because you are place-bound with family, don’t see yourself in the narrowed group of options, or simply want to look for other opportunities, I’ve included a bonus chapter from Finding Your Unicorn Job: Financial Freedom, Flexible Hours, and Personal Fulfillment Beyond the Pharmacy Counter. Often I hear students say, “It’s not that I really want a residency; it’s that I don’t want to work in retail.” While I personally enjoyed community pharmacy, I understand. This book provides stories from many pharmacists who love their job. I know you didn’t match, and I respect that was a tough day. But what defines a person as a professional is what one does when one gets knocked down. I want to help you get up and get after it, and in this quick guide, you can.

The Strong Residency Letter of Intent
Summary
A Letter of Intent, or LOI, is a writing type that falls under English for Specific Purposes (ESP) which is a subgroup of English as a second language (ESL). The specific purpose for an LOI is to earn a residency interview. Your letter should have the current residents and residency director saying, “I have to meet this person”. Every question should include the prime objective. Which would bring you closer to an interview? A) A unique targeted heartfelt letter or B) A letter of intent that you use for all residency sites with a few changes Which would bring you closer to an interview? A) A letter that outlines what you can do for the site or B) one that outlines how the site fits your needs Which would bring you closer to an interview? A) A letter you got help on from friends and experts or B) A letter you wrote on your own hoping you caught all the mistakes in it You get the picture. Pick A for accepted. Every time you want to take a shortcut, use a template half the final year professional students use, or try to complete the letter under time pressure, you should always ask yourself, is this action bringing me closer to or further from an interview? It’s that simple. If you want me to be one of the people by your side during residency season and help you with the letter, you can go to residencyhelp.com.
