Residency Closure and/or Reduction

Updated: August 2008

In the event of reduction or closure of a Wright State University program, the Designated Institutional Official (DIO) will inform the Graduate Medical Education Committee (GMEC) and all affected residents as soon as possible.

In the event of a reduction or closure, every effort will be made to reduce entry-level positions through decreased recruitment.

In the event of such a reduction or closure, every effort will be made to allow residents already in the program to complete their education.

For residents who are displaced by such a reduction or closure, every effort will be made to assist the resident(s) in enrolling in a program in which they can continue their education.

In the event of a reduction, the DIO and the GMEC will abide by all ACGME requirements.
