We also offer electives in Pediatric Emergency Medicine. As with emergency medicine applicants, pediatric EM applicants should be fourth year medical students who have completed their core rotations and are considering emergency m3dicine, pediatrics, or pediatric emergency medicine as a career. Please send any requests as early as possible, because often the schedule is made before your arrival. We will try to send you a copy of the schedule prior to your arrival. You will work approximately 13 shifts during ad 4-week rotation.
Attendance is mandatory.
During your rotation in the ED, you will function as a Sub-Intern. You will see, evaluate, and try to develop a care plan for your patients. You will be supervised at all times. These are your patients and you will be expected to follow and manage them. Your immediate supervisor in the ED will usually be the senior resident, EM3, on duty.
