The educational and clinical experiences at The University of Toledo begins with patient care. Our faculty provide highly skilled and respected patient care and education throughout the breadth of pediatric general and speciality care.      

Regarding education of residents and students, informal tutorial and patient-driven discussions between faculty and house-staff are a way of life. More than 100 full-time and clinical faculty actively participate in resident training. Resident responsibility gradually increases over the course of three years and the maturation of the resident from student to teacher occurs as a result of professional-to-professional interaction which is a major distinguishing feature of our program.

Intern experiences include ward, NICU, pediatric emergency medicine, newborn nursery and primary care pediatrics. The intern works closely with both supervising residents and faculty to develop clinical skills. Supervising residents participate in required months of ward supervision, PICU/NICU primary care pediatrics, pediatric emergency medicine, developmental pediatrics and adolescent medicine. They also have exposure to pediatric sub-specialties during elective time.

In addition to direct patient care responsibilities, a number of educational sessions are scheduled for the residents, including afternoon report, Grand Rounds, teaching rounds, journal club, board review, radiology conference and morbidity and mortality conferences. We have a weekly academic half-day, which consists of lectures and workshops delivered by faculty members. Once a month, our academic half-day takes place in the LLoyd A. Jacobs Interprofessional Immersive Simulation Center. The ultimate goal is to achieve a full and enjoyable educational experience.
