Family physicians receive their clinical training in three-year family practice residency programs that provide a broad range of experiences. All family medicine residency programs emphasize the provision of care in ambulatory settings, as well as the principles of family medical care. To this end, family practice residents gain extensive experience during continuity clinics at family health centers. A recent study of family physician practices indicated that family physicians work in incredibly busy, complex settings. This same study demonstrated that family physicians were also slightly more likely to practice in urban underserved areas.7 A study of family physicians in Washington State has concluded that family physicians are more likely to care for vulnerable and Family and Friends documentDisagreements about capacity or best interests 16 5.

Nueva Vista grew out of a lengthy organizing and community design effort in conjunction with the project's very low and low-income residents who work in the county's tourism and agricultural sectors, and the green aspects of the project helped build political support from the Santa Cruz City Council.
