Resident Research, Quality Improvement, Community Education and Conferences
Family Medicine supports resident research and quality improvement (QI) projects as well as efforts on our resident’s behalf to educate and empower our local community. We believe high-quality care stems from a strong foundation in QI projects and research.
Many of our faculty and residents are part of several projects that help improve resident life and patient outcomes. Our residents have also been invited to share their research posters and speak at conferences across the country.
Recent examples of resident and faculty lead research and quality improvement projects:
- Telehealth and Diabetic Management
- What Matters Most: Geriatrics and Palliative Care Curriculum
- Pre-Clinic Huddles and Improved Patient Care Delivery
- Improving Immunization Rates Among African American Patients (AAFP supported)
