We participate in national and statewide safety initiatives such as the national Hospital Improvement Innovation Network.

As the larger health care system evolves, we believe our residency program plays a part in addressing the health care needs of our community and beyond. Our students are offered numerous hands-on learning opportunities. There are curricular and fellowship options that allow each resident to stay focused on their goals while having the chance to expand their training.
In 2018, our nationally renowned Memorial Residency was recognized by the ACGME for fostering a respectful and supportive learning environment for its residents by receiving the DeWitt C.
