Weekly Announcement

Complete your rotation and peer-to-peer evaluation! Otherwise you may find out that Dr. Warm has particular set of skills, skills he has acquired over a very long career. Skills that make him a nightmare for people who don't complete evals. If you do your evaluations now, that'll be the end of it. He will not look for you, he will not pursue you. But if you don't, he will look for you, he will find you, and he will make you complete the evaluations.

Please remember: if you are scheduled for noon report on a Friday, this is a split intern and senior report. This means that both members of the team need to be ready to present the case and learning points. Intern NR is in the noon report room, senior noon report is in the GI work room

The next Medical Education Pathway meeting is this upcoming Monday, August 27th from 12:00-1:30 in Mark Brown Library. The topic is Assessment and being led by Dr. Warm!

Please get your golden requests in for November and December! Deadline for submission is September 1st

Long Blockers, couple of things to be aware of:

  • Please be working to close your clinic notes ASAP. You should complete the notes within 48 hours. Weekends are not exceptions. It is 48 hours : )
  • Complete the wet prep training on MyKnowledge

Congratulations to those who have completed their ITEs! Good luck to everyone taking it in September. Study hard and may the odds be in your favor!

Weekly Announcements

Just a quick reminder about protocol for holdovers (both for going from long call into nights AND night into the AM). The hold overs for long call are patients called up from 7:30 - 8PM and for the night team are patients called up after 6AM. The expectation is that the resident team called will return the call to bedboard, lay eyes on the patient, and place basic skeleton orders. It is then their job to signout the patient to the oncoming team

Long-blockers, miss AAP this week? Check out the documentation resources on the website under inpatient logistics. Danielle Weber will also find another time to have a session for residents interested in finding out tricks for documentation and learning some essentials for billing.

The Doctor's Dilemma group has begun practicing and you are invited! Keep an eye out for invitations and please join the team!

If you haven't already, check out the website's newest addition - the "Weekly EKG" will be posted every Friday. It's a fantastic way to practice your EKG interpretation skills. Check it out!

In addition, they are looking to get resident feedback on the consult service. If you would like to be involved or have any thoughts, email Dr. Herbst at Lori.Herbst@cchmc.org

If you are consulting Interventional Radiology, please be sure to place a consult order in Epic AND call via the paging center/Amion to discuss the consult. If there is no Epic consult order, IR cannot complete the consult
