Noon lectures
The family medicine conference is held twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday starting at noon. Topics are varied and evidence-based, covering the entire spectrum of medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, behavioral science and psychiatry. Lunch is provided.
Afternoon workshops
The second Thursday of the month is set aside for resident business and learning. During this time, the residents have protected time with the chief resident and program director to discuss any burning issues of the day.
This afternoon also includes learning time for workshops like suturing, pulmonary function tests or treadmill testing. On special occasions residents may head over to the simulation center, where residents can practice code situations in a safe but realistic environment.
Following the workshop is a case conference or journal club.
