Hospital Medicine/Wards

Welcome to the Wards! Please don't be shy to reach out to the hospitalists at any time with questions, concerns. The office door is always open. Some helpful items to get you started:

• General Goals and Objectives and Night Float Goals and Objectives
  
• NEW!: The Pediatric Ward Guidebook. The following items are referenced within the guidebook, included here for ease:
  • Presenting on the Wards
  • Please review the helpful logistics links!! They include charts, cards, guides, I-PASS info, consult tips, info to help you organize your team, and more.
  • Tim's handy worksheet to help you evaluate and give feedback on medical student presentations
  • Transitioning from new intern to almost-a-2nd-year means adjusting team responsibilities - review this suggested chart on role delineation.
  • Check out this file explaining Hannah's role (Hospitalist NP) and how she can support you
• Plan to request feedback each Thursday/Friday! Consider using this feedback form if it fits your learning style. 
• If you're on Red team, do check out the heme/onc rotation page as well
• As always, morning and block conferences are protected learning time. Let the chiefs know if you have concerns. 
• For the months of July-December and April-June, if patient care allows (low to medium census), interprofessional sims take place! This generally occurs on Thursdays - however, given high census these days, Kate Wynne and the chiefs will try to be creative and find opportunities at any time.

Next up, important learning information.

• The chart below contains a list of the most important topics we think you should focus learning on, with efforts to read the following articles and guidelines. You'll notice we like Pediatrics in Review!
• A new online curriculum is being developed by the APPD - check out the Pediatric Hospital Medicine Curriculum here.
• The CHOP Clinical Pathways contain really great inpatient information and links to references.
