On June 29, Baystate's new residents and fellows participated in the Graduate Medical Education orientation where they heard presentations about education and research at Baystate and learned about professional organizations—including the new Baystate Physician Spouse Association. That evening, they and their families mingled with faculty and GME staff at a reception at the Carriage House at the Barney Estate.
