Past and Current Residents

Qiana Ferraro - Current PGY1 Resident 

Hometown
Cranston, RI

Education
Doctor of Pharmacy, University of Rhode Island - South Kingstown, RI

Professional interests
Ambulatory Care, Clinical Pharmacy, & Education

What drew me to Middlesex Health
Because Middlesex is a smaller community hospital, they are able to provide a supportive and cohesive learning environment. I value the interprofessional relationship between pharmacy and the rest of the healthcare team that provides personalized, patient-centered care. The program also offers a longitudinal ambulatory care rotation, and teaching certification that supports my career goals.

Plans after residency
I am interested in pursuing a role as a clinical pharmacist in the ambulatory care setting or hospital setting after residency.
