Information for Incoming Fellows

Congratulations on matching with our fellowship! We look forward to working with you!

Gearing Up!

As you get ready to join our fellowship, we hope the following information will be helpful. The onboarding process begins soon after the match, with  program leadership guiding you along the way!

Where to Live

We recommend investigating housing options in the following areas of the state. In some instances, we have listed some apartment facilities where past and present fellows have lived (i.e. The 903/Kettle Point/Ashton River Lofts).

  • Barrington
  • Cranston (Edgewood/Pawtuxet Village/Garden City)
  • Cumberland (River Lofts complex)
  • East Providence (Kettle Point complex)
  • Providence (The 903 complex; River House complex), East Side)
  • Warwick (Pawtuxet Village/Gaspee)

Generally speaking, residing no more than 20-25 minutes away from Women & Infants Hospital is advised, especially for transport calls and post-call drives home.

Brown University offers additional guidance on housing options on the East Side of Providence.

Benefits and More

COVID-19 + Influenza Vaccination Requirements, etc.

Women & Infants Hospital/Care New England mandates COVID-19 and influenza vaccination for all employees (barring a medical exemption).

Documentation of these vaccinations (or documentation of medical exemptions), as well as typical vaccinations (MMR, etc), will be requested months before your start date. 

 

Pre-Employment Screening

Background criminal checks are conducted on all new employees at Women & Infants Hospital/Care New England. Drug toxicology screenings are not conducted on employees at Women & Infants Hospital/Care New England.

Child Care + Support for Physician-Moms

A helpful resource for some of the top child care options in the area.

Some of our fellows have enrolled their children for day care at Bright Horizons (conveniently located on the hospital's campus). They have also utilized nanny services.

Brown University has compiled a comprehensive list of day care options:

Choosing Daycare

If you need further referrals, please connect with program leadership regarding current fellows who may have their children in child care programs. 

Support for Physician-Moms

Additional support, mentoring and advice on being a mother as a physician is available via the Brown group MomDocFamily. Fellows can sign up when they have matched to Brown and if they are either mothers or pregnant. More info under: https://owims.biomed.brown.edu/momdocfamily
