Family Medicine


NUHS, in collaboration with St Luke’s Hospital, Raffles Medical Group and Frontier Healthcare Group, has launched an innovative Family Medicine Residency Program that offers our trainees a diverse experience in an acute tertiary academic hospital, community hospital and private GP settings.

 

This program exposes the FM Residents to a public-private mix that extends the breadth of primary care exposure to firsthand experience of private GP practice in graduated blocks of learning, a FMC focused on continuity care and chronic disease management, specialist ambulatory care experience in NUHS, and rotating hospital postings.

 

Leveraging on the strengths of each of the participating institutions, trainees will experience breadth and depth in their residency learning and a continuum of care in different.

 

 

The Residents will also develop competency in assessing and meeting the healthcare needs of our citizens from young to old -- in acute care, continuing care, home care and end-of-life care.
