Schedules

The Internal Medicine Curriculum is a well-balanced mix of inpatient and outpatient experiences in general internal medicine and subspecialties. This enables the resident to become an excellent primary care physician and provides a solid internal medicine foundation for the resident entering a subspecialty fellowship.

* During the general medicine ward months, residents are on-call every fourth night. All residents receive four days off per month (a Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday), and additional vacation days are not permitted.

** During the ICU months, the residents work Monday-Friday from 6 a.m. to no later than 6 p.m. Residents are not on-call at night and have weekends off.

*** The Night Float has two interns per month working five to six consecutive nights followed by five to six days off. The day of the NF intern starts at 10 p.m. and ends at 8 a.m. During this time, the intern takes cross-cover calls, responds to codes the with resident on call and admits new patients if the team has not capped by that time.

Note: During the elective/selective months, residents work Monday through Friday. Residents do not take overnight call and are generally allowed to take up to five consecutive vacation days during the elective/selective months.
