Critical Care

Faculty Director: Dr. Frank

 

The Critical Care mini-fellowship is designed to support and encourage residents in their exploration of critical care medicine. The curriculum is designed for those with a particular interest in critical care medicine and will serve to supplement other parts of the general residency curriculum. Participants of this track may pursue a fellowship in critical care, but any resident with keen interest is welcome.

 

The curriculum will include:

• Didactic sessions focused on critical care topics relevant to emergency medicine, to be scheduled in small groups with EM/CCM faculty.

• Journal clubs to review new and landmark literature relating to emergency medicine and critical care. Resident participants of the track will facilitate journal club with supervision from EM/CCM faculty.

• Simulations focused on critical care topics will be authored by resident participants of the track and further developed with assistance from simulation faculty.

• Committee Membership relevant to critical care is encouraged (e.g. sepsis; stroke; trauma; or code committees)

• Elective Rotations will be scheduled during PGY3 year to further supplement the participant’s critical care training.
