About the Job
Opportunity Details:
Does your psychiatric training, compassion for patients, and work ethic set you apart from the crowd? If so, consider applying for the UHS Resident/Fellow Stipend Program.
The UHS Resident/Fellow Stipend Program provides monthly financial assistance to psychiatry residents and fellows ( students"). The stipend assists in the completion of your residency or fellowship training program. In exchange, you agree to be a medical staff member at a UHS affiliated hospital for two years upon completion of the training program.
This program is intended to link students to UHS affiliated hospitals, not to a specific hospital or practice. Stipends are offered at a time when students are not ready to make a commitment and/or sign a contract with a specific hospital or practice.
*Please Note: This program is currently only for psychiatry and behavioral health residents and fellows.
