Pediatric Residency Program

The goal of our Pediatric Residency Program is to train exceptional pediatricians who improve the lives of children and are well-prepared for their next stage of practice, regardless of focus.

Our Key Strengths

• Our residents, who work together and with interprofessional teams to provide amazing care to children in our region
• Well-balanced education between our tertiary/quaternary and community hospital sites, resulting in graduates who are well-trained for independent practice
• Breadth and diversity of our patient population and available resident experiences
• Flexible, individualized training including optional participation in one of our Tracks: digital health and innovation, community health & advocacy (CARE), global CARE, medical educator, primary care, refugee CARE, research, and subspecialty practice
• Communication Coaching Program to enhance professional and communication skills for all residents
• Program response to feedback: resident input over the years has led to our night float system, unit-based teams, and most recently, X+Y scheduling 
• National leader in community health and advocacy education, including our Pediatric Links with the Community (PLC) rotation for interns and the CARE track
• Faculty invested in supporting resident education and autonomy
• Collaborative community approach in caring for the children of our region
• Ongoing monitoring and actions to support a safe learning environment for all
