Although the UCLA Center for Health Sciences has a separate Medicine Residency program, the UCLA-Olive View program is sponsored through UCLA and the two programs share identical housestaff benefits. Our residents rotate to UCLA for wards, CCU and Geriatrics rotations, while their residents rotate to Olive View for wards and Ambulatory Medicine rotations. UCLA is our "sister" hospital and we enjoy a healthy and foward-looking relationship.
