The practice of not discussing the accreditation of clinical sites or not publishing a list of clinical sites is far too common in the Caribbean. Before you start at any rotation that you think is accredited, find out who it is accredited through and verify it yourself at ACGME Accredited Program and Institutional Listing - Public Access.

Several schools (and the website of Jackson Park Hospital) have a habit of lying about Jackson Park Hospital being ACGME-accredited for "anything but family medicine."

My signature has more information on how to check the accreditation of hospitals that are affiliated with accredited programs.
