This requisition is specifically for those who have been matched to the PeaceHealth Family Medicine of Southwest Washington Residency Program. 

The Family Medicine Residency Program is a community-based residency program located in Vancouver, Washington. It is part of the University of Washington Affiliated Family Practice Residency Network and is sponsored by PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center. PeaceHealth’s community of health care professionals in the Vancouver area include PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, a 450-bed tertiary-level hospital with complete services, and PeaceHealth Medical Group, a multi-specialty group serving communities throughout Clark County. Family Medicine of Southwest Washington (FMSW) is an unopposed community-based family medicine program committed to providing its residents with a broad-based curriculum in a rich learning environment with an emphasis on fostering individual ownership and responsibility for patient care decisions through guided mentorship. The core inpatient rotations at PeaceHealth Southwest occur during FMSW inpatient teaching services, which are managed by senior residents and supervised by residency program core faculty. While attending the inpatient services, the faculty’s sole responsibility is teaching and oversight of the service. This provides a high level of interaction and collaboration to encourage resident learning. The remainder of inpatient education is conducted by community attendings on specialty rotations.
