Below info collected at interview
3 yr program, began in 1973. County w/ 53,000pt, 20% admit. Children's hospital 67,000 pt.
Residents: 10 per year. All seemed to be very happy with the program. No complaints. The current PG2 and PG3 classes, both lost 1 resident to a different specialty resulting in their classes being short 1 resident each. I don't know what the story is behind this or if it is a reflection on the management of their program.
Shifts/Salary: 8hr shifts w/ 2 PEDEM shifts at Children ea mo; PG1 $44,000 20 shifts (4mo EM, 1mo IM, 1mo Cardio, 1mo pulm, 1mo OB/NICU, 1mo General surg, 1mo ped EM, 1 mo anesthesiology), PG2 $45,500 23 shifts (8mo EM, 1mo PEDEM, 1mo Neuor, 1mo ortho, 1 mo EMS/CommunityEM at St. Lukes located near the Plaza), PG3 $47,000 20-21 shifts (10mo EM, 1 mo PEDS em 1 mo elective). Moonlighting is encouraged.
Faculty: Many from Truman. Residents stated attendings are strong & friendly. One per shift w/ 16hr double coverage 5 days a week.
Facility: Very nice w/ 52 beds (I'm going by memory). Residents state flow of pts becomes backed up when they run out of beds on the floor. They have added 60 floor beds which has helped. 3 trauma bays. Paper charting
Didactic: weekly conference & Mock oral board (mo). Also, EM reading, EM journal (Mo), Grand Rounds (wkly), MM(mo), Trauma conference (mo), Ped conference (mo didactic w/ journal club q 3mo)
