ACOM Announces Class of 2022 Early Match Results

In advance of Match Day on March 18, the Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine (ACOM) is pleased to announce the early residency match results for several students from the Class of 2022.

Match Day is an iconic milestone for a medical student as it signifies the shift to a new phase of medical education – residency, a multi-year program with intensive training in a specific specialty. In their final year of medical school, students apply and interview with residency programs where they may want to train in the future. The students and programs rank each other respectively through the National Residency Match Program that runs a computerized algorithm to determine the match. Those match results are revealed, with much anticipation, on Match Day. Certain programs, such as ophthalmology and the military, complete their match processes separately and announce those results in advance.

ACOM is proud of each of these students for their achievements and looks forward to celebrating the Class of 2022 Match Day later this month.

Caroline Clark named ACOM 2021-2022 Student Doctor of the Year

Caroline Clark, Class of 2022, has been named ACOM’s 2021-2022 Student Doctor of the Year (SDOY). Each year, the ACOM Student Government Association requests nominations of students who demonstrate the principles of leadership, community service, dedication and professionalism. Osteopathic colleges across the country select one student from their institutions to compete for the national SDOY award.

Clark considers herself a Southeastern transplant, having moved to Alabama from New York nearly 10 years ago. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in biomedical sciences with a minor in philosophy from Auburn University. Clark first learned about osteopathic medicine during ACOM’s fall open house and was immediately drawn to the idea of treating patients past their routine medical needs.

“The osteopathic approach to whole-body wellness with an emphasis on patient-centered care really stood out to me, and I knew this was the medical education I wanted,” Clark said. “ACOM’s faculty, staff, and overall environment felt welcoming from the moment I arrived. I soon understood the relationships I was building at ACOM among my peers, the faculty, and administration would challenge and encourage me to become the best physician I could be.”

Clark served as SGA President for the Class of 2022 before moving to Decatur, Ala., to complete her clinical training. She says her most rewarding experience has been being part of the care team for several 23- and 24-week-old newborns in the Neonatal ICU.

“Here I found my calling in medicine during the encounters with both patients and their families. Although the NICU can be a heartbreaking place at times, there was nothing more gratifying and inspiring than sending a child home with their family,” she explained.

Clark plans to pursue a pediatrics residency and ultimately, either a fellowship in neonatology or other pediatrics subspecialty. She hopes to return to the east coast when she completes training to be closer to family and friends.

As Student Doctor of the Year, Clark will represent ACOM for the national Council of Osteopathic Student Government President’s SDOY competition this spring.

“I am overcome with gratitude for both my peers who nominated me and the selection committee who awarded me this honor, for it is truly humbling to receive such a title,” Clark said. “ACOM has provided me with academic and leadership opportunities that have molded my professional identity, and for this I will always be deeply thankful. Moving forward, I hope to represent all ACOM stands for with integrity and enthusiasm.”

ACOM, WCCD and Troy University students collaborate during Interprofessional Simulation

Second-year students from the Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine (ACOM) participated in a day-long, joint Interprofessional Education (IPE) medical simulation session on Friday, February 11, 2022, with students from Wallace Community College Dothan (WCCD) and Troy University Dothan. The event was held in the Health Sciences Simulation Center located inside the Heersink Family Health Science Building on the Wallace Campus in Dothan.

During the session, students from each institution worked together to care for a standardized patient, with the goal of gaining a better understanding of the roles and responsibilities each profession has in patient care.

This session is part of an ongoing series of collaborative events between WCCD nursing students, ACOM medical students, and Troy University Dothan nursing and social work students. The program is designed to underscore the value of team-based healthcare. The students were placed in interprofessional groups to encourage collaborative teamwork and problem-solving. The students participated in breakout sessions for a team-building exercise, followed by a case study segment in which each team member was assigned specific roles.

“Wallace is pleased to host this Interprofessional education simulation,” said Dr. Jacqueline Spivey, WCCD Division Director, Associate Degree Nursing. “This simulation allows different members of the healthcare team to communicate with each other to benefit the patient outcomes as well as the healthcare team members cooperative care. This simulation does benefit the students by preparing them for the world outside of the classroom. We are proud to once again partner with ACOM and Troy. As always, it is such an exciting day to see how the groups interact in such a collegial manner to enhance quality patient care.”

“Interprofessional education is experiential learning at its finest, revealing medical team management through experiencing each medical person’s role in healthcare,” said John T. Giannini Jr., MD, ACOM Associate Professor of Internal Medicine/Director of Simulation.

“The Troy University Dothan Campus students have participated in this event for several years now and truly enjoy the experience,” says Rachel Walker, lecturer, Troy Social Work department. “For many students, it is their first time interacting with multiple disciplines. We appreciate the partnership TROY has with Wallace Community College and Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine and look forward to many more years of continued, mutual support for our students and institutions.”
