Residents provide comprehensive primary care to patients across the lifespan. Training includes continuity and partnered clinics, specialty rotations, educational programs and didactics, procedure training, and an independent project intended to improve patient health or the healthcare system. Residents also participate in shared call, staff meetings, agency committees, and other required activities. They provide evidence-based care, consult with other healthcare professionals as appropriate, maintain timely and accurate records, and counsel and educate patients and families.
