Whether you’re a first-year pharmacy student or nearing graduation, Mount Carmel offers you exciting opportunities to work with highly skilled professionals and gain the kind of experience you can only get in a dynamic hospital setting. You’ll get real-world practice with valuable skills, including IV compounding, collecting medication histories and interacting with patients.

Our internships, which are available at Mount Carmel East, West and St. Ann’s, reinforce what you learn in the classroom by providing you with real-world responsibilities that affect patient outcomes. Each academic year, your training and practice skills will expand under the direction of top clinical pharmacists. As a Mount Carmel Pharmacy Intern, you’ll:

• Help pharmacists prepare and dispense medications, keep meticulous records and counsel patients
• Prepare IV admixtures and other sterile products
• Compound medications
• Help fill outpatient prescriptions
• Package and label medications
• Help provide drug information to patients and healthcare professionals
• Perform clinical duties under the direction of a licensed pharmacist (medication reconciliation, adverse drug event review, renal dosing/review, medication utilization review, patient rounds with physicians, presentations to staff, codes/traumas and unit inspections)
• Work with dispensing machines, barcode label machine, nursing point-of-care medication scanning system and hospital information system
• Enjoy a flexible, year-round schedule

Mount Carmel also offers exciting incentives to new pharmacy grads in return for work commitments, including:

• A final-year tuition reimbursement of up to $8,000
• A sign-on bonus ($4,000 for full-time and $2,000 for part-time) for new grads who successfully complete the state board examination and obtain a license

That means new pharmacy graduates may receive both incentives in return for an appropriate work commitment — as much as $12,000 for a 3-year, full-time commitment!
