Didactics

 

Most conferences are resident-led which allows for development of research and presentation skills.  Morning Reports are often joined by subspecialist attendings who add valuable expert opinion and context to the case being discussed.

 

Bootcamp

An annual week-long orientation that focuses on developing skills to allow our interns to excel during residency.  Boot Camp consists of mock-code simulations, introduction to POCUS, EKG reviews, writing notes, and practicing safe patient hand-offs.

 

Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS)

A longitudinal course to teach every resident the basics of POCUS relevant to Hospital Medicine through faculty-led didactics and hands-on skills sessions.  By the end of the course residents will be able to apply their skills on patients using department provided butterfly ultrasounds while on inpatient services
