The transitional year residency program is well integrated with Hurley’s other graduate medical education programs. To provide optimal exposure to a variety of medical disciplines, the Transitional Year residency program includes inpatient, outpatient, emergency medicine and critical care rotations in internal medicine, pediatrics and obstetrics/gynecology. In order to meet requirements of specialty residency training programs, a broad range of electives are also available to residents.
| Electives — 4 blocks | Geriatrics — 1 block | Emergency Medicine — 1 block |
| Obstetrics & Gynecology — 1 block | Intensive Care Unit — 1 block | Coronary Care Unit — 1 block |
| Pediatric Inpatient — 1 block | Pediatric Outpatient — 1 block | Internal Medicine — 2 blocks |
One block is defined as four weeks.

Residents are given the same responsibility as categorical residents (from training programs in pediatrics, internal medicine, emergency medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, combined medicine/pediatrics, diagnostic radiology and orthopaedic surgery), creating an academic and clinical environment that advances a resident’s clinical and professional education within the limits of experience and demonstrated skills.
To apply to our program, candidates must utilize the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS).
