  • Title: Integrative Medicine in a Preventive Medicine Residency: A Program for the Urban Underserved.
    Author: Berz JP, Gergen Barnett KA, Gardiner P, Saper RB.
    Journal: Am J Prev Med; 2015 Nov; 49(5 Suppl 3):S290-5. PubMed ID: 26477906.
    Abstract:
    The Preventive Medicine Residency Program collaborated with the Department of Family Medicine's Program for Integrative Medicine and Health Disparities at Boston Medical Center to create a new rotation for preventive medicine residents starting in autumn 2012. Residents participated in integrative medicine group visits and consults, completed an online curriculum in dietary supplements, and participated in seminars all in the context of an urban safety net hospital. This collaboration was made possible by a federal Health Resources and Services Administration grant for integrative medicine in preventive medicine residencies and helped meet a need of the program to increase residents' exposure to clinical preventive medicine and integrative health clinical skills and principles. The collaboration has resulted in a required rotation for all residents that continues after the grant period and has fostered additional collaborations related to integrative medicine across the programs.
