Frequently Asked Questions
What are the staffing requirements?
The resident will staff longitudinally in an ambulatory clinic one half-day per week throughout the residency.
What orientation will I receive prior to starting the residency?
Each resident will attend a general orientation to BIDMC followed by a more focused orientation and training program within the ambulatory setting.
How will the program address my individual residency goals?
Required rotations provide the resident with a broad experience in core elements of ambulatory care. A range of elective rotations allows the residents to customize the rest of their year to meet their specific training goals. Pharmacy integration into more than 15 clinics across all BIDMC campuses (and counting) allows for many opportunities for unique and tailored learning experiences.
