Internal Medicine Residency Program

Patient Care

Residents must be able to provide patient care that is compassionate, appropriate, and effective for the treatment of health problems and the promotion of health.

Culture of Safety and Improvement

In designing the schedule for services, the following goals are taken into consideration

In order to achieve these goals we do keep track of the census in all services including ER admissions.

• The transition of care between settings and transfer of care.
• Continuity of care.
• Improve the ownership of patients by the house staff.
• Include all the six competencies in the resident schedule.
• Education over service.
• Compliance with Duty hours.
• Resident Supervision for Fatigue.
• Involving medical students in clinical training.

The following are the tools we measure to quantify patient care.
