Aurora GME pillars
Aurora Health Care Graduate Medical Education programs are built on a foundation of five pillars: learning, leadership, innovation, team-based patient care and population health.
Hands-on experience
As an Aurora Health Care resident or fellow, you’ll train primarily at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center or Aurora Sinai Medical Center. However, you’ll have the opportunity for cross-campus training rotations at other sites and clinics in the communities we serve.
No matter where you train, you’ll be fully involved in patient care – making decisions, offering opinions, honing skills, sharing and acquiring knowledge. You will practice medicine and learn in a wide variety of settings and across disciplines, gaining real-life experience that will better prepare you to practice in today's complex medical marketplace.
Resources & benefits
During your hospital rotations, you’ll have access to excellent support services, including first-rate nursing staff and well-trained technical and ancillary personnel. There is also round-the-clock coverage for blood drawings and intravenous lines, as well as radiology and laboratory services.
Through the Advocate Aurora Library residents and fellows get free access to expert librarians, MEDLINE, many other health-related databases, over 10,000 different medical journals, and an expansive collection of more than 15,000 print and electronic books.
Aurora Health Care medical residencies and fellowships offer a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
