 Current
resident – Kirstin Kastern, Pharm.D.
Previous education: BS in Biology from the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Pharm.D. from the Chicago College of Pharmacy at
Midwestern University in Downers Grove, Illinois
Short bio: I was born and raised in the Milwaukee area. I
became interested in pharmacy when I was in high school. On my time off,
I enjoy hunting, fishing and camping. I also enjoy photography and value
time spent with family and friends.
What factors did you consider most important when choosing a
residency? I was looking for an organization that offered both
inpatient and ambulatory care rotations. The variety of rotation options
was also important to me.
Why Aurora? Aurora Health Care offers multiple rotation site
locations at both large and small facilities. This allows for a large
variety of learning experiences. I also found it important to be part of
a larger residency class.
Current rotations:
- Drug Policy
- Transplantation
- Family Practice
- General Medicine
- Joint Commission Preparation
- Cardiology
- Operating Room
- Adult Medicine
- Epilepsy/Neurology
- Psych/Hospice
- Administration
Year-long project: "Using ‘lean technology’ to decrease missing
medications thru a series of rapid process changes.”
Future plans: I wish to be working in an ambulatory setting
that has a connection with inpatient pharmacy.
