The Department of Family Medicine operates on the premise that comprehensive quality medical care can be provided efficiently and effectively to a family by a well-trained family physician. This training is grounded in the six Core Competencies as defined by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). These competencies are: Communication and Interpersonal Relations, Medical Knowledge, Patient Care, Practice-Based Learning and Improvement, Professionalism and Systems-based practice.
Residents train at David Grant Medical Center (DGMC), 60th Medical Group, both in the Family Medicine Clinic and on other specialty rotations, as well as other designated training sites. DGMC is a full service, 125‑bed, acute‑care facility which serves as a referral center for the western region of the United States. Consultation services are available with board‑certified individuals in all departments. In the first year of training, the program emphasizes inpatient management of medical problems. In the second year, inpatient skills are refined with greater emphasis on leadership of medical students and junior residents combined with greater exposure to outpatient clinics. During the third year, the emphasis is contuinity care in the outpatient setting. When "on call" as the third year, it is as the primary manager of Labor & Delivery and a supervisor to the 1st and 2nd year residents running the medicine teams.
