C-Change Resident Survey

Leaders in resident training have also recognized the critical role that the institutional culture or clinical learning environment plays in the training of physicians, their well-being and the provision of safe, high quality patient care.

The C-Change Resident Survey© assesses the clinical learning environment and the culture of professionalism from the perspective of resident physicians. The survey directly aligns with the ACGME Pathway.

The C-Change Resident Survey, with demonstrated evidence of validity1 in U.S. residency programs nationally, assesses dimensions of the culture.
