Curriculum

Our pediatric residency program provides an opportunity to care for children referred to Ascension St. Vincent for tertiary care  as well as a rich ambulatory experience in our pediatric outpatient clinic.  As a busy hospital offering comprehensive services including ECMO, transplant, pediatric burn unit, and Level 1 Pediatric Trauma, PMCH offers unparalleled clinical experiences to our learners.  And, as one of only two Children's hospitals in the state of Indiana, we provide for a large catchment area and serve a very diverse community.

In addition, as a smaller program, we are able to actively tailor curriculum to the specific needs of the individual. With personalized mentorship and guidance, each resident can choose individualized curriculum in any of the pediatric subspecialties as well as being able to choose experiences in areas such as research, global health, medical administration, pharmacy, and parenting. 

Since we do not have fellowship programs at PMCH, our residents interact directly with faculty and are able to develop close relationships with them.  Our engaged faculty are very committed to helping our residents achieve their career goals, whether it is helping a PICU-bound resident get more experience with procedures or mentoring a resident interested in primary care how best to look at practices.
