The evaluations are permanently held in the residents' files. The program director documents the discussions with the residents. The residents are also asked to develop individual assessments of the program and faculty by means of a formal questionnaire distributed yearly. They, then, hold a confidential meeting as a group to complete a single assessment for each attending. This approach provides confidentiality for the residents and candid answers to the questions posed.
Faculty meet every three to six months to respond to concerns and document plans.
The Chief Resident is invited to the regular weekly faculty meetings. The program director has regular meetings with the residents, both individually and in groups, to discuss progress, conferences and plans. All rights reserved. Comments or suggestions to the site editor .
