Manatee Memorial Hospital
The goal of the program is to provide an educational experience that prepares the resident to be a competent family physician capable of providing comprehensive and coordinated care to a broad range of patients and families. The resident’s educational experience emphasizes the competencies and skills needed to practice family medicine of high quality in the community.
Residents will become sufficiently familiar with the specialized fields of medicine to enable them to participate as team members in the care of patients with chronic and complex disorders. They will learn how to apply evidence-based, cost-conscious strategies to diagnoses and disease management in patients, when hospitalized as well as in the FMP setting.
Residents will work with other members of the healthcare team in inpatient, ambulatory, home and long-term care settings, learning to become competent as leaders in the organization and management of patient- and family-centered medical care.
Over the three years of training, residents will achieve competency in patient care, medical knowledge, practice-based learning and improvement, interpersonal and communication skills, professionalism, systems-based practice, osteopathic philosophy and osteopathic manipulative medicine.
At Manatee Memorial Hospital, we are committed to providing the best in quality medical care and patient safety in an atmosphere that is compassionate and professional.
