The Pediatric Hospital Medicine Fellowship at Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) is an ACGME-accredited program that seeks to produce physicians who are experts in the care of hospitalized children with both acute and complex, chronic medical problems. In addition, the program is designed to provide advanced training in adult learning theory and medical education, quality improvement and patient safety and research. The program is a well-balanced, 2-year program that consists of clinical rotations on the inpatient resident-covered and attending-only services, as well as several related clinical and elective rotations. Didactic and experiential learning activities are primarily focused on academic and systems topics, including hospital throughput, health care finance, and advocacy. Fellows have the opportunity to complete graduate courses toward a Masters of Clinical and Biomedical Investigations or other relevant degree from the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California.
Clinical training occurs primarily at our main campus, a 495-bed quaternary care facility. CHLA has been named one of the nation’s top five best children’s hospitals by U.S. News and World Report, and it is the only pediatric medical center in California ranked in all 10 medical specialties every year for the past 5 years. The CHLA Division of Hospital Medicine has approximately 30,000 patient encounters per year.
