Medical Students

Central Maine Medical Center Family Medicine Residency provides clinical and educational experiences to third-year core students and fourth-year elective students.

Clinical and Educational Experiences

We foster a collaborative environment centered on Central Maine Healthcare’s tradition of excellent medical education while anticipating the changing needs of our community. We strive to cultivate compassionate, socially responsible leaders who create the future of healthcare for all.

Our residency is a host Core Clerkship site for the entire third year of clinical experiences for the University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine (UNECOM). We accept a total of twelve students from UNECOM, who are matched to our site through a lottery process.

We also are a core site for 3rd-year Family Medicine Clerkships at Tufts University (Maine Medical) School of Medicine and the Lerner College of Medicine at the University of Vermont.

We strive to provide an optimal learning experience by allowing students to be involved in all aspects of medical education. We will only schedule rotations when there is no conflict with resident education. Rotations are also available to students from other U.S., Canadian, and international medical schools.

What We Offer to Students
· CMMC is located within walking distance to many restaurants, shops, services, and places of worship. It is also close to Bates College. · Transportation services are easily accessed.

· In Auburn, apartment-style housing is provided based on availability, and priority is given to early applicants. It may be necessary for you to share an apartment with a different sex if the student census is high. Apartments have a fully- equipped kitchen, provided linens, laundry on site, wireless internet, and basic cable. No pets are allowed.

· Parking – Off-street parking is available to all students.

· Food – We are unable to provide free meals to elective students.

· For further questions please contact Katherine Truitt, Student Coordinator at Katherine.Truitt@cmhc.org or call 207-795-2824

Elective Clerkships
The following elective clerkships are available at CMMC and are coordinated by the Family Medicine Residency office. We only approve rotations that offer the most optimal education and clerkships are only scheduled when they will not conflict with resident education. We offer these rotations to students from U.S., Canadian and offshore medical schools.

Family Medicine (Sub-Internship)
· 4-week clerkship
· Combination of Inpatient and Outpatient experience
· Opportunity for an evening call and weekend on-call shift
· Didactic sessions weekly

· Infectious Disease
