Rotations will be structured into a 13-block schedule comprised of 4-week blocks to be aligned with the pediatric residents’ modified X+Y schedule. Medical-surgical unit/inpatient service will rotate between weeks with the resident teaching service, APP staffed service, and hospitalist only service. Each block will allow for enough time to establish a meaningful experience through following a panel of patients contiguously (as appropriate per rotation), having consistent supervision for service weeks to allow for well-informed feedback, allow for contiguous teaching on the resident/teaching service, and ensuring the staff physician can directly observe progress for assessment. Like the modified X+Y model, initiation of scholarship “Y” weeks would allow for fatigue prevention and longitudinal commitment to maintaining and completing scholarship pursuits.
The PHM Fellowship curriculum is designed to meet each fellow's learning needs while adhering to all ACGME standards. Fellows will acquire clinical experience, medical education experience, sufficient opportunity to pursue scholarly activity and ample procedural sedation exposure.
