Swedish Hospital has held Initial Accreditation with the ACGME since April 8, 2019 to train emergency medicine residents in a four-year program, located in the great city of Chicago. Our mission is to train community-based, emergency medicine physician leaders with an emphasis on evidence-based medicine. One of the many things that make us unique is that each resident class works together to design, implement, and measure the outcome of a community service project, which not only aids in the medical needs of our extremely diverse community, but also allows us to understand our patient population better. We look forward to sharing more information about our program with you.
The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted EM residents from Chicago's Swedish Hospital to reach out to their community, visiting local businesses to help educate and protect citizens.
