Before you start:

• Review the ICU Orientation Powerpoint: ICU Orientation Powerpoint 2016-2017 NINJA
• Review your schedule on AMION, including ICU team assignment, call days, and days off. You should average one day off per week.
• If not previously done so, watch orchid training videos and complete online assessment: http://www.uclaoliveview.org/orchidtraining
• Expect an email from the Chief Residents, which will include hand-off assignments and the AMION password.
• One day prior to your rotation, contact the outgoing housestaff for sign-out. You can find contact information in the email or AMION.

On the day you start:

• Receive hand-off from the overnight ICU team in the ICU (5B-North and 5B-South).
• Plan to complete pre-rounding by 8:00am in order to attend orientation or morning lecture.
• If you’re a new rotator, you should expect orientation by the ICU fellow or attending.
• Make sure your pager is unforwarded!
