Our mission is to train our fellows in the field of pulmonary and critical care for high value, evidence-based patient care. We also focus on achievement of ACGME competencies along with quality and safety with robust focus on assessment of competencies. Simultaneously we do not want our trainees to burn out and we care for their well-being and make sure that they do not violate duty hours. Our fellowship program is across two sites: Royal Oak and Farmington Hills. Both sites are complementary to each other for education of fellows. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,
Bhavin Dalal, MD
Fellowship Director, Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship
Our educational mission is to enrich the field of pulmonary and critical care medicine by putting our patients at the center of everything we do through excellence in clinical care, teaching, and research. Our pledge is to provide PCCM fellows with experiences and training which affords them the abilities to be leaders in medicine while providing compassionate care. Our faculty, with incredible support from the Department of Medicine and other resources within Corewell Health, is committed to the success of those who train with us. In doing so, we improve the health and well-being of those we serve through care in a large suburban tertiary academic referral center, a community based academic center drawing from a more urban population, and our surrounding outpatient offices. These goals are aligned with the mission of Corewell Health to provide competent patient and family centered care.
Pulmonary and critical care faculty demonstrate dedication to medical education, partnering with Corewell Health and Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine to contribute to all stages of training.
Graduate Medical Education: PCCM faculty provide training for residents in pulmonary consult, medical ICU, ambulatory pulmonary medicine, and sleep medicine rotations. Consult and MICU rotations have residents from internal medicine, internal medicine/pediatrics, emergency medicine, anesthesia, and Transitional Year programs. Residents have appreciated the educational value of these rotations, as a PCCM faculty has earned the “Teacher of the Year” Award each year from the Internal Medicine residents from 2011 to present. PCCM faculty is active in resident mentorship, having placed multiple internal medicine residents in competitive PCCM fellowships, and assisted EM residents to match in critical care.
Undergraduate Medical Education: Corewell Health is the sole clinical affiliate for Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, which admits 125 students each year. PCCM faculty organize and facilitate the OUWB respiratory curriculum, provided to all first-year medical school students. Our faulty earned “Clinical Science Educator of the Year” awards from OUWB students in 2013 and 2016. OUWB third year students participate in the pulmonary consult service, and fourth year students have opportunity for electives in pulmonary consult, medical ICU, ambulatory pulmonary medicine, and sleep medicine. Elective rotations are also available from students from other medical schools.
