Hospital and health council leaders identified key needs for family medicine residency programs. Care for the elderly, emergency medicine, and mental health services were prioritized over academic or northern-focused programs.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Public Health Policy
  • Family Medicine

Background:

  • Third-year family medicine residency programs are crucial for community healthcare.
  • Understanding the perceived needs of these programs is vital for resource allocation and curriculum development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To survey hospital Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) and District Health Council (DHC) executive directors on the perceived community need for specific third-year family medicine residency program types.
  • To identify which program specializations are most valued by healthcare leadership.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was administered to hospital CEOs and DHC executive directors.
  • Respondents were asked to compare and rank third-year family medicine residency programs based on community need.

Main Results:

  • Care for the elderly and emergency medicine were ranked highest by CEOs.
  • Care for the elderly and mental health services were ranked highest by DHCs.
  • Academic family medicine and northern-focused programs were ranked lowest by both groups.

Conclusions:

  • Community healthcare leaders prioritize residency programs that address immediate and prevalent health needs such as geriatric care, emergency services, and mental health.
  • There is a lower perceived need for academic or geographically specific (northern) family medicine programs among these stakeholders.
