Schedule

What is 4+1?

  • Block scheduling that helps to separate inpatient and outpatient duties and minimize conflicts between inpatient responsibilities and outpatient clinical work. Residents will spend four weeks in a consult or inpatient setting including general medicine, subspecialty medicine and critical care exposure. They will then spend one week in a primarily ambulatory setting wtih increased didactic time.
  • Allows for longitudinal clinical experiences in subspecialty training sites.
  • Increases exposure to a variety of ambulatory experiences.
  • Allows for a longitudinal board prep experience.
