Ensuring success of our residents.
The Mission of the SLUHN Chiropractic Residency is to prepare each resident for integrated clinical practice and scholarly pursuit in hospitals and other integrated care settings while fostering a strong embrace of the patient-centered, evidence-based, and biopsychosocial approaches to care. The overarching intention is to develop a chiropractic residency that is mission driven, and outcomes based while aiming to cultivate the skills and knowledge within each resident to provide chiropractic care when appropriate and effectively coordinate care for patients with spinal related and other musculoskeletal disorders through the full spectrum of a patient care experience. The residents will triage patients referred from Primary Care, Urgent Care, Emergency Departments, and other specialists for consult; coordinate necessary tests/imaging; communicate with the care team; provide multimodal treatment when appropriate, within scope (mobilization/manipulation, postural/ergonomic advice, soft tissue techniques, self-care strategies, stretches/exercises); and refer patients when appropriate to other specialists.
The residents will:
- Triage patients referred from Primary Care, Urgent Care, Emergency Departments, and other specialists for consult
- Coordinate necessary tests/imaging
- Communicate with the care team
- Provide multimodal treatment when appropriate, within scope (mobilization/manipulation, postural/ergonomic advice, soft tissue techniques, self-care strategies, stretches/exercises)
