Schedule

Here are some highlights of the clinical schedule for our residents.  Interns in the categorical and preliminary tracks have identical schedules.

4+1 Schedule

Housestaff rotate on a four-week block and then spend 1 week (“+1”) in the ambulatory clinics.  There is no call every fifth weekend on the +1 block.

Continuity Consolidated on +1

All primary care continuity clinics are scheduled during the “+1” week.  This allows for improved continuity with primary care patients. Also, there is less disruption when on other rotations.
