Longitudinal Curriculum
• Human Behavior and Mental Health: Behavioral science and psychiatry needs to be integrated throughout a resident's education. Training should be acquired primarily in the outpatient setting, and through didactic sessions. Residents will review the evaluation and care of their own continuity psychiatric patients within the FMC. They will be responsible for fulfilling the goals and objectives of this rotation through close supervision and liaison with the behavioralist, who will meet with patients and residents at all FMC sites.
• Practice Management: A variety of topics pertaining to Practice Management are taught within the three years of residency through didactics, business and team meetings, and in small group sessions and individual encounters with educators in the field.
• Community Medicine: Residents are given exposure to the health needs of the community through instruction at program conferences and clinical experiences at various sites throughout the Toledo area.
• Obstetrics & Gynecology: In addition to the month of Obstetrics in each academic year, and Gynecology in PGY-1, residents will participate in OB/Gyn specialty clinics located at the Family Medicine Centers and the Neighborhood Health Association.
• Care of the Older Patient: During the three years of training, residents gain insight into the complexities of care in the older patient within the Family Medicine Center as well as in the hospital setting. Additionally, they participate with faculty members in clinical rounds at long-term care facilities and the home.
