The Emergency Medicine Residency at HCA Florida Ocala Hospital is an ACGME-accredited program.

We aim to provide the residents with the tools they need to begin the lifelong journey of learning in emergency medicine!

The strength of our training program is the tremendous depth and breadth of our clinical care. We provide an academically and clinically rigorous training program in emergency medicine.

Our dedicated faculty provides our trainees with the basic and clinical knowledge, procedural skills, clinical judgment, professionalism, and interpersonal skills necessary for a successful career and to develop as a leader in emergency medicine.

The curriculum is designed to provide broad clinical exposure in acute and chronic care occurring in the inpatient and outpatient settings as well as extensive experience in the appropriate procedures. We are also committed to nurturing a robust interest in scientific investigation and evidence-based practice.

  • The didactic curriculum follows an 18-month repeating schedule that uses some lecture-driven sessions, while the majority of didactic sessions are small group discussions and interactive learning sessions, including several simulation sessions. The learner will also partake in a clinical environment ripe with the opportunity to learn the breadth and depth of emergency medicine.
