Residency Curriculum
Adult Medicine
Training in adult medicine builds a strong foundation in history-taking, physical examination, differential diagnosis,
the use and interpretation of diagnostic tests, and appropriate use of consultation and ancillary services. The
medicine teams provide code coverage for all in-house cardiac arrests, and Advanced Cardiac Life Support
certification is provided. An additional rotation is provided in cardiology and many residents choose electives in
medical sub-specialties.
Women’s Health
From contraceptive counseling to delivering a baby; from following a breast cancer
survivor to assisting a victim of domestic violence, the family doctor confronts
women’s health issues on a daily basis. The Women’s Health curriculum offers a
wide array of clinical, didactic and procedural training in gynecology and
family-centered perinatal care. Residents follow their own obstetrical patients in
the Halifax Health - Center for Family and Sports Medicine throughout all three
years. Highlights of this curriculum include:
› Perinatal Care
› Outpatient Gynecology
› Procedural Skills
