Abstract
The occupational and environmental medicine (OEM) gap in US medical education is widely recognized. In 1992, a federal initiative stimulated a primary care approach to improve residency training in South Carolina. This three-part report documents progress in designing and implementing an OEM curriculum, which is family medicine-centered. Each of the state's residency training programs participate in an ongoing Environmental Medicine Curriculum Committee effort. Part 1, discusses the needs assessment; Part 2, the five key elements of curriculum; and Part 3 details a clinical guide to the OEM patient.
