About

Hi, I’m Joseph Muench – better known as “Pharmacy Joe.” I’m a Doctor of Pharmacy and Board Certified Pharmacotherapy Specialist that practices in a community hospital. I’m married to my high school sweetheart. Listen to our kids do the audio bumper for Episode 100: Critical Care Pharmacist Workflow.

Back in 2002, I transitioned from being a community pharmacist to a hospital pharmacist. A few years later I transitioned again into the specialty of critical care.

I created this website for hospital pharmacists like you, to be the resource I wish I had when I was developing my skills in hospital pharmacy and critical care.

Explore the resources:

Free downloadable PDFs to help you in your practice
The Elective Rotation Podcast, a free twice-weekly show where you can listen to critical care and hospital pharmacy information
A Pharmacist’s Guide to Inpatient Medical Emergencies, a book to help you learn how to respond to code blue and rapid response calls
