The Emergency Medicine Emphasis Tract Internship is
comprised of thirteen four week rotations. This allows for twelve rotations and
four weeks of vacation. While this tract gives extra Emergency Medicine
experience, it does not guarantee acceptance to or give credit toward an
Emergency Medicine Residency. The internship is comprised of the following
rotations:
4 Months of Emergency Medicine
While on the Emergency Medicine Service, the
Intern will work under the supervision of Emergency Medicine Attendings and
Residents. Both St. Barnabas and New York United Medical Center Emergency
Departments are training sites. This provides a large broad based patient
population with a wide variety of pathology.
3 Months of Medicine
While on the Medicine service, the intern will
work side by side with PGY1 Internal Medicine Residents under the supervision
of Attending Internists and Senior Residents. Time on the Medicine Service is
broken down as follows:
2 Months of In-Patient Medicine
1 Month of Intensive Care Medicine
2 Months of Surgery
While on the Surgical service, Interns will
work under the supervision of Attending Surgeons and Surgical Residents. This
is primarily an In-patient service, but time will be assigned in the
Out-Patient Surgical Clinic.
1 Month of Obstetrics and Gynecology
While on the Ob/Gyn service, Interns work under
the supervision of Attending Physicians. Out-Patient Ob/Gyn, labor and
delivery, and In-Patient Ob/Gyn services are all provided at St. Barnabas
Hospital. Some Out-Patient services are also provided at other training sites.
