To outline the residency project requirements.
Background

Responsibilities
During your three years in the residency program, it is expected that you will complete a minimum of at least one resident project. This may involve an educational, EMS or research project which will be of a quality that it could be published or presented at a major state or regional conference. The project needs to be approved by the Project Review Committee before starting. You should utilize your faculty advisor, Dr. Knopp and other faculty members to select or develop an appropriate research project/presentation and for guidance in its development and execution as early in your residency as possible.

Procedures

Guidelines for resident project selection:

  1. Residents will need to select a content area to work on their project by the end of their first year.
  2. Priority for any content area will be given to a resident who is interested in completing a research project in the content area regardless of whether they wish to be involved in other activities in the content area.
  3. All projects require approval by the resident project committee in order for the resident to receive credit for the project. Committee approval should be obtained early and will require submission (residents can get from Lori) of form to the committee.
  4. Content areas would include research, toxicology, EMS, ultrasound, education, as well as other possibilities where the resident has a specific proposal in an area not previously mentioned such as administration.
  5. Generally, no more than 3-4 residents per year can be in a single content area. We believe the experience will be diluted with greater number of residents.
  6. Contacts for specific areas: Joel Holger: research; Kory Kaye: EMS; Carson Harris: Tox; Felix Ankel: education; Kurt Isenberger or Peter Kumasaka: Ultrasound; Brent Asplin: administration.
