Hi Connie
Here is what we have for UNM.
Rotation Specific Objectives

Night Float: PGY2

Faculty: On-Call Attendings

Goals:
 Have in depth exposure to the field of acute care orthopaedic surgery in a setting where they are the initial contact practitioner
 Have primary responsibility for the care of acutely ill orthopaedic patients and refine procedural skills required in this care
 Develop the requisite interpersonal and leadership skills of an effective practitioner
 Develop effective communication skills necessary for patient care, inter-service communication, and transfer of care

Objectives:
 The night float resident functions as the primary after-hours resident assigned to work with the respective on-call orthopaedic attendings assuming direct responsibility for all aspects of the initial assessment, pre-operative, intra-operative and post-operative care of the acutely ill patients under their care and to provide ongoing care of the other hospitalized surgical patients.
 The night float resident gains knowledge of acute surgical care through the experience of providing direct patient care, discussions with the attending physicians and senior residents, clinical conferences and by the independent reading expected of the resident.
 The night float resident effects a coordinated transfer of care to the other residents when coming on-duty and going off-duty.

Residents can expect daily teaching from the ward and on-call attendings whether it is received in the hospital, operating room, or morning “board rounds.” Feedback and teaching is individualized to the needs of the residents. Residents are expected to manage the patients with consultation as needed with senior residents and responsible attendings.

Residents are evaluated in the 6 core competencies (Medical knowledge, Patient care, Interpersonal communication skills, Professionalism, Practiced based learning and Systems based practice) using specific web-based evaluation forms. An outline of core competencies with rotation objectives, instructional activities, and evaluations is below.

UNM is working on one as I type this, multiple tier level with faculty and residents. Once it’s completed and I have permission to share, I will.

Happy Handwashing
