Program highlights
- Whole person care is the signature: weekly 'Love Rounds' on inpatient medicine (interviewing patients on emotional, social and spiritual sources of support), spiritual-care training in orientation, and clinic coaching. Speak to faith-informed, mission-aligned care and ask how it is integrated in practice.
- Underserved FQHC continuity clinic (SAC Health, 10+ specialties on site, co-located with San Manuel Gateway College): emphasise commitment to health disparities, refugees, unhoused and Medi-Cal populations.
- Pick a track early: Global Health, Hospital Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, Addiction Medicine or Geriatrics are designed to support fellowship or board certification; ask how residents are matched to a track.
- Skills differentiators to reference: level 6 CIHS integrated behavioral health model, dedicated supervised POCUS curriculum, IHI QI certificate, and in-clinic addiction/HIV/travel/women's health clinics.
- Rural Track - Barstow has its own application and NRMP rank number (1024120C1); state clearly if you want the categorical program, the rural track or both, and use ERAS signaling to show interest.
- Mission fit and personal fit are the stated screening criteria; submit everything through ERAS and confirm work-authorization requirements with the GME office.
