Medical Education

Yale PHM Faculty are recognized for their exceptional teaching skills and multiple medical education activities. New Haven is home to YSM, the Yale Pediatrics Residency Program, and the Yale Physician Associate Program, among other renowned training programs. We started the first Pediatric Hospital Medicine Fellowship in Connecticut and received Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) accreditation in 2022. Our hospitalists supervise medical students, physician associate students and pediatric residents on the wards and newborn nursery across the delivery network. Below are some highlights in medical education and information about the PHM Fellowship Program.
