Residency Program Solutions (RPS) Express Consults
Looking for a quick and inexpensive option to get answers for your family medicine residency program?
Express Consults provide access to expert and personalized help.
With an RPS Express Consult, an RPS consultant will help you identify solutions and new approaches to resolve issues or problems within your residency program. Some examples might include:
- specific questions about implementing ACGME guidelines
- learning how to be a high performing program
- sensitive or confidential issues, such as institutional challenges with a resident or faculty member, where an outside expert perspective would be helpful
