Creating a welcoming environment where all can thrive is a priority for our residency program, department, graduate medical education community, school, and health care system. We know that excellence and innovation depend on collaboration among individuals with the broadest possible perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences. Within healthcare, delivering the highest quality education, training, and patient care requires true teamwork and collaboration among the teachers, students, and health care providers.
Our residency program strives to promote the success of all trainees. We understand that trainees, faculty, and staff may experience a variety of barriers to success while at UAB. Our program works with UAB’s Office of Access & Engagement to support all our trainees, faculty, and staff.
While we are confident that UAB is truly an environment that is welcoming and inclusive of all students and that our residency community is one that is supportive of all its members, we also realize that there is room to grow. We are committed to exploring and taking advantage of all opportunities to ensure continued progress.
