2) Recognize that your first year is about a lot more than just Emergency Medicine.
• You need a SOLID grounding in IM, ICU, Ortho, OB/Gyn, etc.
• Truly immerse yourself in the services you are rotating on-look at the
world through their eyes
17) Go to lecture. I know it’s tough, but where else are you gonna find two weeks
worth of information packaged into 45 minutes and delivered to your noodle?
18) Develop some social support network-and prepare them for what’s coming
• Let them know how important this is to you
• Remind them residency is a finite time
• Don’t be afraid to lean on family/friends for support
19) Learn a little about the machinery that makes the residency run
• ACGME, RRC-EM, Deans office
• Understanding a little about some of the hoops you have to jump through
makes them a little more tolerable.
