Curriculum

The Curriculum is Competency Based and it is comprehensive, competitive and flexible. As shown below a balanced mix of ICU rotations, wards and specialty rotations provide an outstanding academic program. Electives are introduced early in the program enabling candidates interested in fellowship training to have early exposure. The program is dedicated to research and scholarly activity and a rotation with detailed clinical research training curriculum embedded in the first and second year. The General Medical Inpatient Service at Southeast Health is designed to enable residents to evaluate and manage patients with a broad range of medical problems in the intensive and non-intensive care settings. The resident teams are afforded the opportunity to manage patients admitted to Southeast Health from a variety of different settings including the Emergency Room, offices of private practitioners and transfers from outside institutions. The rotations are structured to ensure that each resident team has first contact with patients who are admitted to the hospital. The teams work collaboratively from admission to discharge, under the supervision of the attending physician. The resident will attend morning report and noon conferences. Minimum 90 percent attendance for noon conferences and 85 percent attendance for morning reports is mandatory.
