Curriculum

Overall Goal for Well-Rounded FM Physicians

Our curriculum is designed so that each resident will satisfy all the certification requirements of ACGME. This curriculum promotes learning via structure and supervised exposure based on an educational rather than a service model. Supervision and mentoring are hallmarks of the program, with the residents given additional responsibilities and opportunities as their training and experience warrants. Evaluation is integrated and organized throughout the training. On-call is limited and designed to provide the specific training required of a family physician.

Didactic Experiences and Workshops

Didactic workshops are an important part of the Family Medicine Residency Program. They provide residents with opportunities to practice their skills on peers or simulated equipment. Our FM Program has didactic lectures daily during the lunch hour and monthly Procedure Skill Lab afternoons.
