Schedule
A representative schedule is depicted below. The alternating four month trimester-based schedule assures seasonal variation in exposure to both medicine and pediatrics. At least one half of the total experience is in direct primary care, as required by the Boards of Medicine and Pediatrics. "Internship" level rotations are scheduled for the first 4 trimesters of the residency, of which 12 are PG-1 level rotations and 4 are "PG-level neutral" (elective, adolescent medicine, etc.) rotations. With this schedule, residents are well prepared to act as supervisory residents in both medicine and pediatrics when they have completed 16 months in the program.
