The CHAMPIONS group is working with Dr. Varghai to get residents involved with the MedVoUC (Medical Volunteers of UC) program. These clinics are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays 6:30 PM- 9PM. Two nights a month are at the Women's shelter, the rest are at the Men's shelter. There are medical and pharmacy students as well as pharmacy and physician preceptors. As residents, you can precept the clinics independently or precept the medical students with attending backup based upon your OH license. If you’re interested, please sign up! The location, time, and address for each clinic date is within the signups.
Duty hours are incredibly important! Both from a Department and GME perspective and need to be done WEEKLY! Because of some lagging with this reporting, there will be some significant changes coming to duty hours and consequences of not reporting. Please see the email from Jillian for specifics.
