    Hi Lorena,

    Take a look under the tab on our site for Resources. There is a Timeline that was set up and put there to help coordinators with important deadlines.

    Thank you. Is this for residents only or fellows too. I have never heard of getting this for fellows.

    Thanks, Cindy for sharing. My Chairman actually forwarded the email to me over the weekend. The email also states that the coordinators will need this for reporting. Do you know where this information is reported?

    Dear Kimberly,

    Congratulations on your new opportunity! You have all the qualities needed to succeed in your new position and I know you will be awesome on this new chapter of your life.
    I will miss seeing you at the ARCOS meeting in 2019. It was a pleasure for me to get to know you.
    Best of luck with your move to Florida.
    Again, congratulations Kimberly!

    Best regards,

    My understanding is that they are implementing a single Match Day…April 30. The San Francisco Match rank list is due April 16 with the Match on April 30. There is a calendar on the NRMP site with their dates on it.

    1. We do not provide much assistance with job searches. Most of my residents begin looking in their 5th year in the region they are interested in. If I know where they want to go I will forward appropriate recruiting emails to them.

    2. Our faculty only receive feedback in the form of aggregated data from resident evals. The residents are not comfortable completing evals that would be shared individually. We only have 15 residents so linking an eval to the resident on service is fairly easy to do.

    The University of Iowa is piloting the Behavioral Skill Program at the moment. I am not sure when it is going to roll out to all programs.

    Laurel,

    We take a picture too. I think it’s the one time that they are all together.

    Stacy,
    We have been using MedHub at the University of Washington for several years now. I think it’s a good system overall for a program our size (40 residents).

    MedHub was initially more responsive to changes/updates needed before MedHub merged with EValue. MedHub is capable of doing a lot of things that we don’t even use. I wouldn’t want to use it if I had a really large program like family medicine or something like that but it works pretty well for our program. We never used New Innovations so I can’t compare it to that.

    Stacy,

    The University of Kentucky moved from New Innovations to MedHub 3 or 4 years ago and I feel it is easier to maneuver around and get reports, enter things, etc. I feel it was a good move for us.

    Betsy,
    That checklist is awesome!
    Why do you take a picture of all the residents?

    Hi Sara,

    Welcome! You can email exams@aaos.org and contact the AAOS directly. You will need a testing facility that can handle the number of residents you will need to take it. A special browser will need to be installed, so work with someone IT savvy. I’m attaching the proctor guide from last year. I also created an OITE process document for our program and just modified it for more general use so maybe that will be helpful-also attached.

    Hi Sara! Been there! You should contact Jonathan Sprague, Manager, Assessments and Examinations for the AAOS. His email address is sprague@aaos.org. It is an online exam that takes all day. You order it and they will send you an invoice.

    I have attached the 2017 OITE Proctor (that’s You) Guide. But feel free to reach out again to anyone and especially those at the AAOS. They have answered all my silly questions over the years! If I can help you in any way, my email address is llewis8@wellspan.org.
    Best wishes,

    I also received the same e-mail from the same person. I have not replied to it….our information is already out there on our website.
