Campbell University-Harnett Health Program

Program Identity & Fit

This is a small, community-based Transitional Year program at Harnett Health (Campbell University-affiliated, Cape Fear Valley Health) in rural Dunn, NC, where TY residents train alongside Internal Medicine and Family Medicine residents across Betsy Johnson Hospital and Central Harnett Hospital. The curriculum is broadly distributed (3 months inpatient, 2 EM, 2 ambulatory, 1 night medicine, 4 elective) with a wide elective menu spanning OMT, POCUS, lifestyle medicine, and subspecialty exposure, reflecting flexibility for residents entering diverse categorical fields including osteopathic-oriented specialties. The program emphasizes small-cohort community feel, close faculty access, and equal integration with IM/FM residents rather than research or academic prestige, though it notes research/publication support through Campbell University as available infrastructure. It appears to value residents who want a broad, low-competition foundation year with personalized mentorship rather than a high-volume academic launching pad.
