Description
Program Description (Family Medicine):
The family medicine residency program is the only program at the hospital. This allows all aspects of the hospital to be utilized to train family physicians to practice high quality, cost-effective, and caring family medicine for the future. We prepare family physicians so they can practice anywhere. A diversified rotation schedule consisting of all of the required core curriculum components has been created for a 36 month residency program. A wide variety of clinical electives are available for our residents and a required rural rotation is also included in our third-year curriculum.
A commitment to education over service is integrated into all areas of the educational program. Rotations and supervision of residents is organized for progressive advancement and increasing responsibility and independence throughout their training. Continuity of care is of utmost importance and is emphasized in our family practice center as well as inpatient setting. Osteopathic principles and practices are utilized by all trainees and osteopathic faculty.
Our faculty has a strong commitment to faculty development, community outreach, scholarly activity, and research and has established a process of self-study and internal review to ensure the program is meeting the educational goals and objectives and responding to the needs of the residents as well as the community to provide an excellent graduate medical education environment.
