This is a community-based emergency medicine residency in Brooksville, Florida, jointly sponsored by HCA Healthcare and USF Morsani College of Medicine, built around a high-acuity but non-tertiary hospital base of roughly 62,000 annual ED visits. The program supplements its core site with Bayonet Point (a Level II trauma center) and Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital for pediatric emergency and critical care exposure, giving residents varied acuity and population settings without a single dominant academic mothership. Curriculum uses a flipped-classroom, simulation- and gamification-heavy teaching model, with core faculty bringing niche expertise in ultrasound, EMS, toxicology, wilderness medicine, and medical education, and scholarly activity is supported through HCA's national research infrastructure rather than being an independent institutional focus. With only six residents per year and close integration with sister IM, FM, transitional year, anesthesiology and podiatry programs at the same hospital, the program appears to value hands-on bedside learners who thrive in a small, tightly-knit, community-hospital training culture with an explicit institutional emphasis on resident well-being and autonomy.
