Diversity

The CAMC Internal Medicine program is committed to and accountable for advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in all its forms. We embrace individual uniqueness and foster a culture of inclusion and engage all individuals to help them thrive. We value inclusion as a core strength and an essential element of our public service mission.

At CAMC Internal Medicine residency program:

  • We foster a safe environment of inclusion for faculty, staff, and learners.
  • We will advance and build our workforce by recruiting, retaining, and developing talented faculty and staff from diverse backgrounds.
  • We will address intergroup disparities in areas such as representation, retention, learning outcomes, and graduation rates.

Wellness

Residency represents one of the most physically and emotionally taxing times of a young physician’s career and our program is dedicated to helping address the stress that comes with residency training before it becomes overwhelming. The CAMC community acknowledges signs of resident fatigue and burnout and makes an active effort to support trainees in their times of need. A Resident Wellness Committee has been formed within the medicine department and the residents on the committee meet throughout the academic year to plan events that will reduce stress levels and create a warm community for Internal Medicine residents and faculty.

May 6 to May 12 is National Nurses week and we have some of the very best at CAMC! The nurses stations at Memorial Hospital competed in a decorating competition. They were decorated in themes of all kinds from Harry Potter to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory! Our residents stopped for a picture (and a dip in the chocolate factory) at some of our favorites! Thank you to the nurses for all you do!

Internal Medicine residents had an amazing time when they gathered for a wellness summer cookout during the summer! Our resident housing has some of the prettiest views. This location has a perfect view of our beautiful state capitol building across the river.

The Annual Internal Medicine Olympic Games is a competition where residents and faculty competed against one another in a variety of medical and non-medical challenges. These challenges included a medical term word scramble, rapid fire trivia and a symptom diagnosis matching game. Congratulations to the faculty team for winning this year, but will they be able to claim the throne again next year?
