Typical Resident Schedule
Each
work day begins with Morning Report. Residents and faculty meet
and review the patients admitted to the ward and PICU overnight.
Following the evening's "headlines," second- and third-year residents
present a brief teaching case on a topic of their choosing. Faculty and
residents then discuss the topic in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.
