Just wanted to add more manure to the pile...Another residency that will accept its first class in 2024. Seems like they are searching for a program director.
Let’s create the MD to RN bridge program. Who’s with me?!?So the move for college students wanting to go into medicine at this point is definitely to skip med school and go travel nursing, right?
I've been saying this to all my colleagues over the past few months. Some of our nurses are getting gigs for $12K/week. 12K a week! Somebody make me a nurse already.Let’s create the MD to RN bridge program. Who’s with me?!?
Actually the hospitals/CMGs would love this. You could run a whole community ED with like 4-5 super nurse/doc hybrids.I've been saying this to all my colleagues over the past few months. Some of our nurses are getting gigs for $12K/week. 12K a week! Somebody make me a nurse already.
Hey don’t hate. They get one free white coat per year according to that.This thread reminded me....I just still can't believe they started a residency in Corinth, MS at Magnolia Regional, LOL. That ED has got to be 35K/yr tops.

Dartmouth's residency only sees about 20K in their adult emergency department.
Apparently during the COVID surge last year they were down to 15K volumes.
That's a joke right? Dartmouth only sees 20k/year?Dartmouth's residency only sees about 20K in their adult emergency department.

18 years ago, when I got to Duke, our volume was about 25k, IIRC. It was a joke. I don't know how they got enough volume to now support 12 res per year.That's a joke right? Dartmouth only sees 20k/year?

Thats absolutely insane. How would you ever get enough pathology for even a 6 resident class at sub-30k volumes? How many legitimately sick/resus cases are you seeing a shift at that volume? How many emergent tubes can you get in that time?Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinics Facts and Figures

They have to be fudging their numbers. ACGME has a (extremely pathetic) requirement of 30k visits to be accredited.Dartmouth's residency only sees about 20K in their adult emergency department.

Don't give them any ideas...Simply insane. I work at a freestanding that sees nearly 30K. It's almost all urgent care BS. They could have a residency by ACGME requirements.
I'm going to start a new specialty: FEM (Freestanding Emergency Medicine)Don't give them any ideas...
It'll have to be a fellowship tacked on to the end of residency.I'm going to start a new specialty: FEM (Freestanding Emergency Medicine)
Omg stop!! ^^^ post of the yearI'm going to start a new specialty: FEM (Freestanding Emergency Medicine)
Yes true. I think extra training in "Reassuring the worried well", "Tylenol dosing for Lazy Moms", and "Management of the stubbed toe" are necessary to operate in that specialized field.It'll have to be a fellowship tacked on to the end of residency.
Beat me to it.In the (recent) past, in another forum here, there was a mention (I don't recall if it was a thread) about an "Urgent Care" fellowship from Family Medicine. So, someone else was thinking about the same thing!
