Emergency Medicine - Factsheet


Our Emergency Medicine Residency Program, which began in 1998, is a three-year program designed to produce board-certified emergency medicine physicians who are comfortable handling any patient situation presenting to an emergency department. The faculty consists of 36 full-time and 2 part-time physicians. All of these are Emergency Medicine residency trained, and all are Emergency Board certified/eligible. Residents receive training at Covenant Health Care System’s new state-of-the-art Emergency Department and Saint Mary’s of Michigan Hospital.
