This directory enables you to locate residency programs implementing the Lifestyle Medicine Residency Curriculum (LMRC). The LMRC consists of both educational and practicum components. Its educational component includes 40 hours of interactive virtual didactic material along with 60 hours of application activities designed to be completed over a one- to three-year time period. The practicum component includes 400 lifestyle medicine-related patient encounters, 10 hours of (intensive) therapeutic lifestyle change (ITLC or TLC) program experience and 10 hours of group facilitation experience.
Upon completion of the education and practicum components, residents qualify to sit for the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine (ABLM) certification exam.
