The House Staff sets the tone for the entire hospital and its staff. If the House Staff are enthusiastic about learning, so are the nursing staff, therapists, pharmacists, and even families. If the House Staff enjoy what they are doing, patient care is better, learning is better and the entire hospital benefits. This is the environment at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. It is very gratifying to see the intellectual growth, professional maturity, commitment to excellence and compassion that develop in the resident over three years of pediatric training.
Every new resident has the potential.
They only need the proper environment to blossom. The environment at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin is well suited for this task. A modern, technologically sophisticated facility servicing a population of more than 1.5 million, Children's Hospital is fortunate to have a strong affiliation with the Medical College of Wisconsin Department of Pediatrics. The Pediatric Faculty have a strong commitment to teaching the House Staff. That commitment is manifested by the enthusiastic faculty participation in weekly case conferences directed to the PL-1 residents, monthly journal clubs directed David A. Lewis, MD Associate Professor Department of Pediatrics Division of Cardiology Director Graduate Medical Education toward each year of training, professor's rounds, acute care conferences, mock codes and grand rounds.
