Curriculum and Rotations

All residency programs at Atlantic Health follow a 13-block rotation schedule; each block lasts four weeks. The schedule offers a greater variety of experiences to residents and provides equitable distribution of vacation time.

Below is a sample table of what may be expected during each academic year for the Internal Medicine Residency Program at Morristown Memorial Hospital's categorical program:
