Stratford General Hospital – Hospitalist Program
The goal of this program is to provide family medicine residents with exposure to a full-service community hospitalist program.
Stratford General Hospital is a secondary care facility in Huron Perth. We pride ourselves on a strong generalist tradition. The hospitalist service is supported by a group of dedicated Family Physicians, who have a strong history of concurrently providing inpatient care, as well as a dynamic Internal Medicine team.
The Hospitalist department provides inpatient coverage for acute medical, surgical and rehabilitation units as MRP. This service is complemented by a parallel supporting General Internal Medicine service caring for more unstable patients. Our program will include one-on-one time with a hospitalist with routine and scheduled teaching. There is graduated resident independence and role responsibility as appropriate to the residents’ skill level. Stratford has consistently been ranked as a leader in medical education over the last 10 years and we look forward to extending this experience though our Hospitalist program.
As a resident, patient responsibilities will include:
- Providing care on an inpatient service, between the hours of 8AM and 5PM Monday to Friday.
- Rounding 2 weekends/month (Saturday and Sunday x 2 weekends). (There are no on-call requirements during the block).
- A brief review of a clinical case, guideline or other education point of interest is presented and shared with other residents and staff on rotation during the block.
