List of Rotations

The Royal’s residency program uses a multi-track system. Each track represents the clinical program in which a Resident will complete their primary rotation (2 days/week for the duration of the year). Secondary rotations (two six-month rotations each 1 day/week) are assigned after the APPIC Match. Secondary rotation assignments are based on Resident interest and the pool of available secondary rotations.

Tracks for the 2024-25 residency year:

  • Operational Stress Injury Clinic (APPIC Number 183911): 2 positions
  • Mood and Anxiety Program (APPIC Number 183914): 1 position
  • Substance Use and Concurrent Disorders Program (APPIC Number 183915): 1 position

Secondary rotations will be available in the following clinical programs for the 2024-25 residency year:

  • Community Mental Health Program
  • Integrated Forensics Program
  • Mood and Anxiety Program
  • Ontario Structured Psychotherapy Program 

  • Operational Stress Injury Clinic
  • Substance Use and Concurrent Disorders Program
  • Youth Psychiatry Program
     

Note: Applicants are welcome to apply separately to as many of the tracks as they would like, indicating their tracks of interest in one cover letter. Applicants are encouraged to identify their four preferred secondary rotations in order of preference.
