Our objective is to educate residents in evidence-based medicine so they can deliver exceptional patient care to our community. We are committed to cultivating a shared responsibility among our program participants, nurturing their personal and professional growth as well as leadership abilities. Throughout our residency program, we strive to maintain a harmonious equilibrium between work and education, guidance and autonomy.

Longitudinal Experiences
Longitudinal experiences help our residents develop the necessary skills to become well-rounded internists with a deep understanding of chronic medical conditions as well as common acute care complaints. Our longitudinal ambulatory continuity clinic follows a 4 + 2 model and allows residents to create and follow a panel of patients throughout their training, which includes the ability to conduct telemedicine visits.
In addition to clinical and academic experiences, we offer a formal mentorship program to all residents. Each resident gets matched with a faculty mentor who serves as a guide and advisor as you advance through your training.
Residents also participate in quarterly resident wellness events, simulation labs during ambulatory blocks, procedure training and journal clubs. Other longitudinal experiences include a quality improvement project, health systems management experience, a scholarly activity requirement, participation in a yearly inservice training exam and courses on resident wellness, resilience and burnout prevention.
Inspira Committees
Residents have the opportunity to participate and develop their leadership skills in several committees and Inspira-wide initiatives, including the Pharmacies and Therapeutics Committee, Antimicrobial Stewardship, Opiate Stewardship, Graduate Medical Education Committee and Quality and Patient Safety Committee.
