The chief resident is responsible for organizing the academic rounds of the division. Morbidity and Mortality rounds are held. The senior resident on each team will be responsible for recording the morbidity and mortality on their service and selecting cases for in-depth review. Please arrive at all rounds on time. On those occasions we cancel our GS rounds in order to attend.

During the event the Harrison Teaching awards are given to the best resident who excels in the teaching of the clinical clerks. The prize consists of a special mug and a cash prize. The residents share with the staff the responsibilities for patient care and are encouraged to ask questions about all aspects of the investigation and management of clinical problems. The residents are expected to see the patients daily. The staff will round with the housestaff on a regular, usually daily, basis.
