NOTES FOR NEW RADIOLOGY RESIDENTS

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

Details about ACLS training will come directly from the Department of Anesthesiology, which coordinates this training for house staff. It is best to tell your new residents to obtain this training prior to their arrival here, and they can check with their local hospitals and Red Cross offices for training opportunities. Also, BLS (Basic Life Support) is a prerequisite for this course and must be obtained prior to their ACLS course. Be sure your residents know this. Residents have 30 days from their hire date to provide proof of ACLS certification; those who fail to meet this requirement will be suspended until they do.

Due to time and space limitations, we do not plan to have lab coat fittings as part of House Staff Orientation. Departmental or individual arrangements will need to be made for lab coat fitting, and should be accomplished early enough that residents can receive their coats by July 1^st. The name and address of the vendor will be provided by house staff as soon as that information is available.
