From the Chiefs: Residency Deadlines
To help consolidate many of the important residency deadlines and dates, the chiefs and PMs have created a new addition to the weekly update and main page. Please refer to the following spreadsheet each week to make sure you’re compliant with all residency/NYP logistics. FYI: while we will do our best to keep this spreadsheet up to date, it is not a substitute for checking NYP email daily. And if you see something important missing from this list, please let us know!
From the Evaluation Sub-Committee: QR Code
You want feedback. Attendings want feedback too. To make sure we’re all getting what we want, the Evaluation Sub-Committee has help create these handy QR codes so that we can provide daily feedback to residents and faculty alike. It can also be found on the Resident tab on the website menu and hardcopies are scattered around both EDs.
Please bookmark this page so you can provide feedback on each shift! We want to encourage a culture where we all improve together, and hopefully these QR codes will make that process easier. Thanks!
