University Physicians Healthcare Hospital will start an emergency residency program in July 2010, now that it has been approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education.

The emergency medicine program will add 18 resident-physicians to the hospital’s residency program. Dr. Kristi J.H. Grall, assistant professor of Clinical Emergency Medicine, will serve as program director.

The University of Arizona College of Medicine and UPH Hospital Graduate Medical Education Consortium now offer four residency programs at UPH Hospital: internal medicine, psychiatry, ophthalmology and neurology. In addition to emergency medicine, family medicine programs will also begin in July 2010.
