Residents may choose to have their continuity clinic experience at a Federally Qualified Health Center or an academic health center. This experience allows residents to provide longitudinal primary care for their own panel of patients and helps them develop the skills necessary to deliver both well-child and acute pediatric care.

The Center for Simulation and Education Enhancement allows residents an opportunity to practice procedures and mock codes in a supportive, simulated environment.
