Abstract
Part II of our three-part report examines five of the key elements for occupational and environmental medicine (OEM) training in family medicine residency. These were introduced by the Environmental Medicine Curriculum Committee (EMCC) faculty in South Carolina under a Department of Energy (DOE) grant to the Environmental Hazards Assessment Program (EHAP) of the Medical University of South Carolina, 1992-1997. Each element is being designed, tested, and updated by clinicians in the residency network. A pilot study of 100 third-year medical students conducted in 1996 suggests the difficulty in implementing OEM skills in current family medicine training.
