The TMU Psychiatry Program is a community-driven residency program based out of some of Canada’s busiest community hospitals which provides a wide array of clinical placement opportunities leading to exposure to a breadth of patient populations and case presentations.
In this relatively small program, residents will work with dynamic, enthusiastic and skilled clinical faculty and experience a learner centered and tailored approach to training.
Residents will be immersed in a program that emphasizes equity, diversity, inclusion, reconciliation and decolonization with exposure to a multicultural population and transcultural psychiatry.
The TMU School of Medicine currently has clinical partnerships with multiple major training sites:
Residency training will leverage a distributed model which may include training at any of these sites for learning in environments, which include community and clinical settings, urban and rural environments, and inpatient and outpatient settings. While the majority of resident training will be focused in Peel and surrounding communities, additional learning experiences may take place at other training sites within Canada through Inter-University Affiliation Agreements. These agreements are subject to change and result in training at sites other than those that are listed above.
Travel to various locations will be required. Access to a personal vehicle will be beneficial, though anyone with access to a reliable means of transportation is encouraged to consider this program.
