Second Year Curriculum

 

Second Year Curriculum

The second year emphasizes the development of a wide variety of outpatient skills while providing additional inpatient experience. One month rotations in Human Behavior, Geriatrics, Orthopedics, and Pediatrics provide additional training in the general care of the family.

PGY2 Family Medicine residents function as supervising ward residents on internal medicine in the Family Medicine Inpatient, and Pediatric Emergency Department.

The month of September is devoted to a block rotation in Family Medicine for all second year residents. During this month, workshops on procedural skills are presented as well as sessions on practice management and Information Mastery.

A variety of community based experiences are also offered. All PGY2 residents are scheduled for one month of night float. Additionally, one month is designated as an elective month.
