Shared-schedule residency training has received more consideration recently as more people have become aware of the need and desirability of such programs.

Some of the problems encountered in the execution of this type of program are presented, along with some suggestions for their alleviation. The benefits of a shared-schedule residency are also discussed. The authors suggest guidelines to use in planning a shared-schedule residency program.
