Charleston Area Medical Center accepts visiting residents for rotations of limited duration and appreciates the diversity that visiting residents can bring to our programs. CAMC wants to make sure that residents from other institutions have the opportunity to visit our facilities and experience what our institution has to offer. Visiting resident rotations are subject to the approval of the respective program/program director and designated institutional official.
Applying For a Visiting Rotation
Residents interested in a visiting rotation with Charleston Area Medical Center will need to submit the “Request for CAMC rotation” form at least 90 days before the start of the rotation.

Once the application and resident's CV have been received by the Office of Graduate Medical Education, the GME office will work with the CAMC program director for the requested rotation to review the request. Once the request is approved, the GME will create a CAMC New Innovation account for you to complete an online onboarding checklist and will draft a rotation agreement between CAMC and the sending institution. These agreements can sometimes take months to secure; therefore, it is extremely important that requests are submitted at least ninety (90) days before the start of the rotation. .
Housing
It is the visiting resident’s responsibility to secure housing during their rotation. CAMC does have some guest housing available; however, housing is limited and is available on a first come, first served basis. Visiting residents interested in guest housing can consult the Charleston Medical Center Housing Corporation manager, Jack Webb, at Jack.Webb@vandaliahealth.org or (304) 345-0171.
Process for Visiting CAMC
Once their onboarding checklist is completed and the rotation agreement has been signed, the visiting resident will receive instructions regarding their visit to CAMC.
