The most useful thing for your phone will be a calculator and some type of formulary with peds dosing (the hospital I'm at has its own formulary/app which people use). Some programs provide books such as Harriet Lane, Nelson's, etc. There's also book money, so it might be a good idea to hold off on buying books until you start and talk to the other people in your residency program. I personally found Peds in Review to be the most useful resource during intern year. Good luck!

I use palmPEDi for quick vitals. It's been pretty helpful
