Kayley Swope Appointed to ACGME Review Committee

First year resident, Kayley Swope, has been appointed as resident member to the ACGME Review Committee for Family Medicine.

The ACGME defines the Review Committee as a committee that handles the accreditation activities for a specialty or sponsoring institution and functions according to ACGME policies and procedures. It is comprised of 7-20 volunteers and meets 2-4 times per year. The Review Committee’s function is to set accreditation standards and to provide a peer evaluation of residency/fellowship programs in its specialty and accompanying subspecialties. The purpose of the evaluation is to assess whether a program or sponsoring institution substantially complies with a published set of educational standards and to confer an accreditation status to programs and sponsoring institutions substantially meeting those standards. 

Congratulations Dr. Swope!
