Bassett-Johns Hopkins Joint Transitional Year-Preventive Medicine Residency

This program is listed under Johns Hopkins, but the first year is completed at Bassett.


The Preventive Medicine specialist requires a broad background in clinical medicine (at least one year) as well as specialized training and experience in Preventive Medicine (two years). A joint program between Bassett Healthcare and the Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health provides the strongest possible training opportunity in both clinical and preventive medicine, taking advantage of the tradition of academic clinical care at Bassett Healthcare and the excellent didactic and research resources at Johns Hopkins. The first year of this program consists of a Transitional Year at Bassett as described above, supplemented by experience in clinical preventive medicine. The second year consists of course work leading to the Masters in Public Health Degree at the Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health. The third year consists of rotations in preventive medicine at Johns Hopkins. The goal is to provide the prospective preventive medicine practitioner with clinical and theoretical skills to be effective in the burgeoning field of preventive medicine.
