Hello all,
I will be starting my transitional year in June, and I have the option of doing 4 weeks of ICU, or substituting that for inpatient medicine. I've been asked to choose, but frankly I'm a bit unprepared to answer and maybe some of you can help me out.
I know ICU would provide a great experience, but from a more practical level, will I really need that experience when in my PM&R residence? I am leaning toward doing extra inpatient medicine instead of ICU, but should I choose the ICU instead for reasons that aren't clear to me now, but might be clear to some of you with more perspective and experience?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Cheers!
