During the senior residency year, the Chief Resident is responsible for providing direction and supervision of the junior residents. This includes responsibilities for managing the inpatient service and taking second call to assist with emergencies and consults. Call is usually taken from home, but evaluations of patients in the Emergency Department or on hospital floors might be needed to clarify clinical problems.
Most residents opt for a variety of the above.
