Residency Models

Residency models refer to different approaches for organizing and supporting healthcare professionals, especially doctors, as they undergo training in clinical settings. In a traditional model, trainees work under the supervision of experienced physicians in hospitals to gain hands-on experience while providing care to patients. Alternative models may emphasize community-based training, focusing on outpatient care. Some residency programs may also integrate research or public health elements. The goal of these models is to ensure that healthcare professionals are well-prepared to meet the diverse needs of patients in various healthcare environments.
