Curriculum
Work Hours/On-Call Duty
The residency recognizes that long work hours and excessive on-call responsibilities
are not conducive to an optimal educational environment nor quality patient
care. The goal of the residency is to have the hours residents work reflect
the hours of practicing family physicians.
