Additional rotations:
- 2 months Pediatric Intensive Care Unit
- 2 months Adult Emergency Medicine
- 1 month Adult Trauma
- 1 month Toxicology
- 1 month Wound Management
- 1 month Anesthesiology
- 1 month Emergency Medical Services
Remaining months are devoted to clinical electives such as sports medicine and child protection, and to the completion of an individual research project.
Academic
The academic program includes 3 hours of weekly clinical conferences presented by a combination of the fellows, internal staff, and speakers who are invited from other divisions to discuss a broad range of medical topics. Journal club, journal watch, simulation work, code review, and professional development talks are incorporated into the clinical conferences. All fellows have an opportunity to attend major national scientific meetings.
