About The Position
This position is located at Community Memorial Hospital in South Hill, Virginia. Founded in 1970, the Department of Family Medicine and Population Health at VCU has a long and proud history of training medical students and resident physicians. Our Department houses all of our family medicine medical student education programs, including a highly rated clerkship and two longitudinal, four-year track programs: The Inner City International Rural Program I2CRP is a 4-year longitudinal program for medical students who are invested in serving medically underserved populations. The mission of the program is to increase the number of students who choose career paths in primary care and who practice in underserved settings. The program enrolls up to 24 students per cohort or approximately 96 students during the M1 - M4 years. The preclinical curriculum includes didactics, journal clubs, grand rounds presentations, and service roles in underserved settings. The clinical curriculum includes second-year preceptorships in urban and rural underserved settings and clerkship rotations in urban, rural, and international underserved settings in Family Medicine, general Pediatrics, Ambulatory Medicine, and general Surgery. Students also complete a scholarly capstone project that is relevant to medically underserved communities. As a founding core faculty member and the Program Director, you will be responsible for helping to build this program from the ground up! We anticipate having residents in post no later than July 1, 2025. Prior to that time, the Program Director will be responsible for working with the Associate Program Director to design curriculum, prepare and execute the ACGME application, help conduct initial recruiting for clinical faculty and residents; while maintaining time for independent clinical practice and scholarship. As Program Director and Core Faculty, once the residents arrive, we anticipate faculty will spend a majority of time on clinical precepting, direct resident and medical student education in both the inpatient and outpatient settings, and educational administration. The remaining time will be devoted to your own direct clinical practice. This position will be primarily based at VCU's Community Memorial Hospital in South Hill, VA; while the Associate Program Director is located primarily on the MCV Campus of VCU Health in Richmond, VA.
