Examples of Yearly Rotations:
A Welcome from Associate Program Director Dr. Celso Velazquez
| Yearly Rotation Schedules : The training year is composed of thirteen four-week blocks. Below is a sample schedule
Responsibility It is not uncommon for a particular resident's education program to deviate from the sample schedule above in order to satisfy his/her special interests. The training program is continuously evolving to comply with the education guidelines outlined by the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education and the changing health care environment. Residents are on call for an average of eight to nine 4-week blocks during their first year of training, usually four to seven times a month. During the remainder of their resident, residents are on call an average of 12 blocks. Interns have direct responsibility for the care of patients and are given autonomy consistent with their abilities. Support is provided by senior residents, fellows, and faculty to ensure high-quality patient care and educational guidance. Training in the second and third year provides progressive experience and responsibility in general and subspecialty medicine. |
