Housestaff Teaching Conferences

Morning RoundsThe teaching conferences are designed to provide the opportunity for an informal exchange of ideas among faculty, housestaff and students. The year begins with a series of Acute Care Conferences and continues with topics that include the sub-specialties as well as general pediatrics. Most of these conferences are held during the noon lunch hour in the pediatric classroom on the 7th floor of the University Hospital.


MORNING REPORT

Each workday begins with morning report. At this time, residents and faculty meet to review the patients admitted to the ward and PICU overnight. Following the evening's "headlines", the 2nd and 3rd year residents present a brief teaching case on a topic of their choosing. Faculty and residents then discuss the topic in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.
