RESIDENT EXPECTATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Professional Conduct
It is the responsibility of the resident as a representative of the NHRMC Department of
Pharmacy and the profession of pharmacy to uphold the highest degree of professional conduct at all times. The resident will display an attitude of professionalism in all aspects of his/her daily practice.
Professional Dress All residents are expected to dress in an appropriate professional manner whenever they are in the institution or attending any function as a representative of NHRMC. Residents are expected to adhere to a business casual dress code for all rotations and activities unless otherwise specified by the residency program director. Residents may wear scrubs while on the following rotations: ICU rotations, ER rotation, longitudinal weekend staffing. Any specific problems with
attire will be addressed privately by the program director. Please see the Pharmacy Dress Code policy and the New Hanover Regional Medical Center Dress Code policy for additional details.
Employee Badges While in the Medical Center, all employees/students are required to wear identification cards above the waist, in a manner such that name, picture, and department are clearly visible. The I.D. card is only to be worn by the individual authorized to wear his/her I.D. card. It is the responsibility of an employee losing his/her I.D. to have it replaced immediately.
Patient Confidentiality/HIPAA Patient confidentiality will be strictly maintained by all residents. Any consultations concerning patients will be held in privacy with the utmost concern for the patients' and families' emotional as well as physical well being. All patient care activities are subject to and should abide by HIPAA regulations at all times. Please keep in mind that HIPAA also encompasses peers, preceptors, and staff. NEVER access any aspect a chart without the patient's written permission if you are not involved in their care. Personal devices, including cell phones, should never to be used to record images of patients. Only equipment that is owned, leased, controlled or approved by NHRMC should be used to photograph or video patients. Consent to photograph is obtained from the patient/patients representative for photographs or video for clinical, educational, or identification purposes when the Terms of Admission (Form AO-014) is signed. Please see the compliance page of CapsulesLive for further details.
Attendance Residents are expected to attend all functions as required by the Director of Pharmacy, Residency Program Director, and rotation preceptors. The resident is solely responsible for their assigned practice commitments, and is responsible for assuring that these service commitments are met in the event of an absence (See - Resident Leave Policy 3.0 in PolicyStat). All leave requests should be discussed in advance with the involved preceptors to assure that service
responsibilities can be fulfilled. An excused absence is defined as a paid day off discussed with

and signed off by the respective rotation preceptor and program director. If a resident is scheduled for inpatient, outpatient, or discharge transition practice shift and they call in sick they must make up this time (additional weekend or shift) on the subsequent schedule and should also contact the manager on call, in addition to their preceptor and RPD to ensure there
is adequate coverage for their shift.
Kronos
All residents are responsible for clocking in at the start of their work day and out at the end.
Residents working in clinics off site without accessible Kronos timeclocks should report their
hours to the department administrative assistant (Ms. Diane Graham).
Pharmacy Licensure
All residents must be licensed in the State of North Carolina. Incoming residents should plan to take their licensure exams prior to the start of orientation if at all possible. Completion of service and rotation requirements are dependent on the resident being licensed. If the resident is not licensed as specified by the Licensure, provisions will need to be made regarding rotation and service responsibilities (See - Licensure Policy 1.0 in PolicyStat).

Pharmacy Residency Project Process
A pharmacy residency project is a required competency area of the ASHP Accreditation Standard. In accordance with
this standard, the resident will perform at least one project (research or quality improvement) per academic year.
Projects will be presented as poster at ASHP Midyear Clinical Meeting and as platform or poster at the regional
residency conference in the Spring.
Preceptor Expectations
Preceptors may submit project ideas to the Residency Program Coordinator by May 1st of each academic year. The
Residency Program Coordinator and RPD's will present topics to Residency Advisory Committee (RAC) for final approval.
RPD's will distribute available topics to residents for review. During orientation, the RPDs, preceptors with proposed
projects and residents will meet to outline the scope of the proposed project and allow residents to ask questions.
Topics should only be submitted by a preceptor under the following expectations:
Prior to submitting a proposed project, the preceptor should have a vested interest and ownership over the
intellectual property of the proposed project. In addition, the preceptor should also check with other parties
who may be invested (i.e. those who have helped develop a process, involved in carrying out a process,
originator of the idea) to determine interest.
A primary preceptor should limit resident project involvement to one project annually
The topic submitter will serve as co-investigator on the project and as the primary preceptor and longitudinal
evaluator of the residents performance.
o The primary preceptor will be assigned to the residents longitudinal project evaluation.
o The primary project preceptor will ensure learning experience expectations are met and complete
electronic evaluations quarterly.
o The primary project preceptor will also be responsible for communicating information including
deadlines, appointments and all pertinent information to all secondary preceptors assisting with the
project. The RPDs will correspond with the resident and the primary project preceptor.
o If the project submitter has little/no experience in precepting a project experience, the project
submitter in conjunction with the RPD, will seek involvement from a preceptor with experience who has
interest in the project.
The primary project preceptor will assist the resident in submitting any requests (data, access, etc) to the
appropriate person/department and/or EPIC.
Should the resident decide to combine the project and manuscript, the primary project preceptor will be given
the opportunity to serve as the primary manuscript preceptor. Should the primary project preceptor decline,
one of the project preceptors can serve as the primary manuscript preceptor.
Resident Expectations
The residents will be provided with a list of projects submitted by preceptors. The resident is responsible for reviewing
and performing a preliminary literature review of the proposed projects before meeting with the project preceptors.
During the project meeting with RPDs, project preceptors, and residents, the resident shall inquire details of the
proposed projects to ensure the project selected meets the residents interest. The residents must select a project and
inform the project preceptor and their RPD using the Project Approval Form be completed by mid-August as described in
Table 1: Important Residency Related Dates.
Any exceptions to the above will need to be approved by the RAC. EPIC Report Request
30
-
In a project where EPIC data is needed, the resident will complete and submit a form entitled General Report Request.
This file is electronic and located as follows: Pharmacy Common Files -> Residents -> 20XX-20XX Residents -> Templates.
Essential elements to provide in the EPIC General Report Request
General: Requestor, department, request date, phone, email
Specific data elements needed in the report in order to identify patients since the report will be generated in
Excel format, ie. patient name, MRN, admission date, discharge date, specific laboratory data (if needed),
specific drug name.
Screen shots of where the data is located are helpful to the EPIC build team.
If there is a similar report already available in EPIC, provide the name of the report in the submission.
Need to provide the dates the data is needed, ie. June 2015 Sept 2015 or if the report will need to generated
on a regular basis, ie. Weekly, monthly from here forward which would be needed for a continuous service
being provided. If you are only looking at a period of time for analysis, provide only the dates needed.
EPIC General Report Request is submitted to the following address: [email protected]
Timeline for submission: least 8 weeks in advance as it takes 4-6 weeks for the report to be created and functional.
IRB Submission process, step-wise approach for submission at NHRMC.
1. Obtain IRB application from the IRB website 2. Complete first draft of the IRB application with the review of past IRB applications 3. Project Preceptor reviews the IRB application and provides feedback 4. Resident makes edits to the IRB application from project preceptors comments 5. IRB application sent to Clinical Pharmacy Manager for review 6. Resident makes edits to the IRB application from Clinical Pharmacy Manager 7. Resident submits only the electronic version of the IRB application to Amy Southerland and Lynette McFadden
(referred to as the IRB office from here forward) 8. IRB office provides feedback/edits to the IRB application 9. Resident edits the IRB application and any other documents as described in the review by the IRB office 10. Resident submits electronically and printed format of the following to the IRB office: IRB application, primary
investigators CV (if not already on file), data collection sheet (or excel file), and HIPPA training (if not already on file at IRB office).

Pharmacy Residency Manuscript Process
Preceptor Expectations
Preceptors may submit manuscript topics to the Residency Program Director's (RPD's) by May 1st of each academic
year. RPD's will present topics to Residency Advisory Committee (RAC) for final approval. RPD's will distribute available
topics to residents during the Residency Discussion Series (RDS) on Manuscript Process.
Topics should only be submitted by a preceptor under the following expectations:
Prior to submitting a topic idea, the preceptor should have a vested interest and ownership over the intellectual
property of the topic. In addition, the preceptor should also check with other parties who may be invested (i.e.
those who helped develop a process, involved in carrying out a process, originator of an idea) to determine
interest.
The topic submitter will serve as co-author on manuscript and as the primary manuscript preceptor and
evaluator of the written material.
o The primary manuscript preceptor will be assigned to the residents longitudinal writing evaluation.
o The primary manuscript preceptor will ensure learning experience expectations are met and complete
electronic evaluations quarterly.
o The primary manuscript preceptor will also be responsible for communicating information to all co-
authors assisting with the manuscript. The RPDs will correspond with the resident and the primary
manuscript preceptor.
o The primary manuscript preceptor is responsible for communicating all deadlines, appointments and
other pertinent information to the resident and co-authors.
o If there is more than one co-author, one primary manuscript preceptor will be assigned by RPD. The RPD
will make this determination based upon discussions with co-authors, manuscript experience of primary
manuscript preceptor, and availability of time for this commitment.
o If the topic submitter has little/no experience in precepting a manuscript learning experience, the topic
submitter in conjunction with the RPD, will seek involvement from a preceptor with experience who has
interest in the topic.
The primary manuscript preceptor will submit any requests (data, access, etc) to appropriate
person/department at least four weeks in advance of need. Any information requests to EPIC (reports, data, etc)
need to placed at least 8 weeks in advance.
Resident Expectations
The resident may choose to prepare their residency project for manuscript submission. The resident is responsible for
notifying their RPD by deadline listed below with the following information:
Manuscript topic
Identification of Manuscript co-author(s). The resident must ensure that all authors agree to participate in
authorship as defined by (1) substantial contributions to conception and design, or acquisition of data, or
analysis and interpretation of data; and (2) drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual
content; and (3) final approval of the version to be published.
At minimum, the following sections (or similar titled sections) are due to the primary manuscript preceptor and carbon
copied (cc'd) to residents RPD by deadline listed below:
Background
Methods
34
-
Each resident is required to prepare and submit a manuscript to an outside peer-reviewed journal/publication.
Residents will be provided a list of suggested and trusted publications during a residency discuss series (RDS) session. It
is the responsibility of the resident to determine if there are any special submission rules (i.e. fees). Submissions to
journals with special requests will need to be approved by the RAC committee prior to submission, and will be handled
on a case-by-case basis. Residents should make a reasonable effort to submit to publications with minimal fees. It is
expected that the resident will serve as primary author of the manuscript. Prior to submission to the peer-reviewed
journal, the resident shall submit the manuscript to the Residency Advisory Committee for submission approval. The
RAC committee will assign a person to proof read for accuracy in regards to history of topic area at NHRMC, health
privacy, etc. The RAC may extend the submission deadline date if changes in the manuscript are required.
After RAC approval, the final manuscript must be submitted to a peer reviewed journal/publication by the deadline
listed below. The resident should expect several rounds of edits and will need to prepare and schedule deadlines
accordingly. A final submission deadline allows time for notification of acceptance/rejection from the journal and edits
to be incorporated with preceptor guidance prior to completion of the residency program. If the editing process extends
beyond successful completion of the residency program, the graduated resident will need to communicate their
continued interested in the manuscript to the primary manuscript preceptor.
Any exceptions to the above will need to be approved by the RAC.

Authorship Criteria and Contributions
Each author should have participated sufficiently in the work to take public responsibility for appropriate portions of the content. One or more authors should take responsibility for the integrity of the work as a whole, from inception to published article. Authorship credit should be based only on (1) substantial contributions to conception and design, or acquisition of data, or analysis and interpretation of data; and (2) drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual content; and (3) final approval of the version to be published. Conditions 1, 2, and 3 must all be met.1,2

A. Defining the Role of Authors and Contributors
1. Why Authorship Matters Authorship confers credit and has important academic, social, and financial implications. Authorship also implies responsibility and accountability for published work. The following recommendations are intended to ensure that contributors who have made substantive intellectual contributions to a paper are given credit as authors, but also that contributors credited as authors understand their role in taking responsibility and being accountable for what is published.
Because authorship does not communicate what contributions qualified an individual to be an author, some journals now request and publish information about the contributions of each person named as having participated in a submitted study, at least for original research. Editors are strongly encouraged to develop and implement a contributorship policy. Such policies remove much of the ambiguity surrounding contributions, but leave unresolved the question of the quantity and quality of contribution that qualify an individual for authorship. The ICMJE has thus developed criteria for authorship that can be used by all journals, including those that distinguish authors from other contributors. 2. Who Is an Author? The ICMJE recommends that authorship be based on the following 4 criteria: 1. Substantial contributions to the conception or design of the work; or the acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of data for the work; AND 2. Drafting the work or revising it critically for important intellectual content; AND 3. Final approval of the version to be published; AND 4. Agreement to be accountable for all aspects of the work in ensuring that questions related to the accuracy or integrity of any part of the work are appropriately investigated and resolved.
In addition to being accountable for the parts of the work he or she has done, an author should be able to identify which co-authors are responsible for specific other parts of the work. In addition, authors should have confidence in the integrity of the contributions of their co-authors.
All those designated as authors should meet all four criteria for authorship, and all who meet the four criteria should be identified as authors. Those who do not meet all four criteria should be acknowledgedsee Section II.A.3 below. These authorship criteria are intended to reserve the status of authorship for those who deserve credit and can take responsibility for the work. The criteria are not intended for use as a means to disqualify colleagues from authorship who otherwise meet authorship criteria by denying them the opportunity to meet criterion #s 2 or 3. Therefore, all individuals who meet the first criterion should have the opportunity to participate in the review, drafting, and final approval of the manuscript. The individuals who conduct the work are responsible for identifying who meets these criteria and ideally should do so when planning the work, making modifications as appropriate as the work progresses. It is the collective responsibility of the authors, not the journal to which the work is
