As one of five academic medical center teaching hospitals in North Carolina,
Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC, conducts residency programs in 12 medical and dental
specialties and serves as an off-campus training site for three more. The
medical center, along with Carolinas College of
Health Sciences and Mercy School of Nursing provide educational environments for more than 1,000 residents,
medical students, physician extenders, nursing students and other allied health
professionals annually. With its updated facilities, sophisticated technology,
and advanced basic science and clinical research, Carolinas Medical Center is
a particularly exciting place for future primary care physicians and medical
subspecialists alike. This degree of technology does not replace compassion,
however, because we emphasize human values and a spirit of caring for all
who need care, regardless of status or financial ability.
Carolinas HealthCare System also has a contractual agreement with the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to manage Charlotte AHEC (AHEC). Charlotte AHEC coordinates and produces continuing
education programming for employees of Carolinas HealthCare System and other
providers in an eight-county region. We emphasize primary care training, enhancement
of services in rural and urban under-served environments, and the development of
new programs aimed at health promotion, disease prevention, and improved healthcare
outcomes. For more information,
call 704-512-6523.
