Conference and Lecture Series
The program director is responsible for designing the curriculum specified by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) for resident education. Each faculty member is assigned particular components of resident education throughout the year. The didactic component is conducted every Wednesday between 7 and 9 a.m.
The first and third Wednesdays of the month are dedicated to the Genitourinary Oncology Multidisciplinary Conference. The second and fourth Wednesdays are a teaching conference following the American Urological Association Core Curriculum, with faculty, residents and invited speakers. Morbidity and Mortality Conference is held on the fourth Wednesday. In months with a fifth Wednesday (quarterly), Journal Club is held. Conference details are below:
The residents assigned to each institution present all cases resulting in death or with a complication. We follow the Clavien-Dindo grading system, and residents are expected to prepare a few slides discussing system improvements that may enhance patient safety, care and outcomes.
Three to four articles are chosen by a rotating faculty member and distributed to residents at least one week in advance. Each resident and faculty member is expected to read all articles. During the conference, each resident will be called on to present one of the articles emphasizing study concepts, design, results and importance of the article in the urological world. Faculty are also expected to read all articles prior to Journal Club and have active participation.
On a rotating basis, faculty are expected to present a didactic lecture on a urologic topic. The lecture series is a two-year cycle of lectures based on the American Urological Association online core curriculum. Guest lecturers from other services, such as nephrology or radiology, will also provide instruction. The conference consists of a lecture about one hour long, followed by a review of relevant self-assessment test questions to be discussed in a group format. Occasionally, this time slot will also include lectures on medical ethics, bio-statistics and research presentations.
Resident Health and Wellness
We take the well-being of our residents very seriously and encourage a healthy work/life balance during training and as you enter your career. In addition to regular training regarding the recognition of fatigue, burnout, mental illness and substance abuse, many resources are available should you need help.
For residents who feel they need help, but are not comfortable discussing it with faculty or fellow residents, 性奴调教 has a free, confidential Employee Assistance Program (EAP), available 24 hours a day, every day of the year at 800-859-9319.
