RAH GIM Student Flights 1 - 6

For student rotating through the RAH GIM FLIGHTS 1 - 6, please note we will be adhering to the following:

Students will do two rotations within the clerkship:

• 4 weeks of CTU  (Clinical Teaching Unit - Gold, Red, or Green Team)

• 4 weeks of PLU (Preceptor Led Unit GIM 2 or GIM 5) 

Call Requirements

There will be different call requirements for the two rotations within this clerkship:

• 4 weeks on CTU, students will do 3 WEEKDAY (Monday - Friday) overnight calls (0800 - 0800) and 1 WEEKEND overnight call (Saturday).  We will try to avoid overnight calls on Tuesdays if possible (due to AHD on Wednesdays).  If a student is scheduled to do call on a statutory holiday, they will receive a day off in lieu ideally within the same 4-week rotation.  We will try to avoid the students doing weekend call on the last weekend of the rotation.

• 4 weeks on a PLU, students will do 3 evening ED admission WEEKDAY shifts (1600 - 2200) and 1 WEEKEND (or statutory holiday)  0800 - 2000.   If a student is scheduled to do call on a statutory holiday, they will receive a day off in lieu within the same 4-week rotation.  We will try to avoid the students doing weekend call on the last weekend of the rotation. Students will NOT be on call for their home unit patients during the ED admission shifts and will NOT round on their own patients on the weekend ED admission shifts. 

Evaluations

Weekly evaluations should be completed by the preceptor on the CTU or PLU each week (unless you are on for 2 consecutive weeks, then only 1 eval at the end of the 2nd week is needed).  Students do not need evaluations by preceptors on ED admission shifts because you will likely only work with that preceptor for that one shift. These ED shifts provide additional opportunities to complete EPA requirements.
