Hi Holly,

Sorry, I just saw your post.  Did you get issues resolved?  Please post so others can be made aware of any issue!

It is always a good idea to have your IT test computers ahead of time and have them on stand-by, too.

I have one in-person resident testing today with no issues.  The IT guy stopped by as well to double check on us as I probably seemed frantic when he was working on the computers that we are using!!  😉

Hope all is well!!!

Agree with LB,

Make sure that you have your residents run the system test to ward off any software issues, ahead of the exam; ex: testing on a Mac where their operating system is too old.  Best case is to have your IT department download the browser and test all the computers being used ahead of time.

Also, it is a good idea to have a qualified IT person from your institution who can help you with any technical issues like firewalls, for example, ON CALL.

Best wishes!

Ok, everyone, so it seems that this link above will only work, at least for me, if I copy / paste it into Mozilla / Firefox browser.

I just watched it!   What a mess!!

Hi Heather,

These are good questions!

We do not track the resident clinic days or the number of patients, nor do they log the patient experiences.  The residents follow faculty who require that to participate in the OR, you also have to be well-rounded and learn how to manage the clinic, as well.  Depending upon the service and which year the resident, they may attend 2-4 half day clinics per week, on other rotations substantially less clinic days.

We use our evaluations to check their attendance at clinic, both faculty and residents confirm they are having clinic experiences.  You could add an attestation question to your evaluations that asks faculty to confirm days in clinic and if the resident saw 10+ patients per week.

Having said all this, I have 3 residents per year and know where they are depending upon their rotation.

Does anyone have another method to monitor resident clinic attendance and patients encountered?

Arrangements have been made by Joni’s family to celebrate her life, this Saturday, August 10, 2024 at 10:00 AM (Mountain Time) at Community of Christ Church, 4701 Juan Tabo BLVD NE., Albuquerque, NM.  For those attending the Celebration of Life the family has asked to please wear something Joni would like, such as Broncos Jerseys, bright colors, the color purple, or something from Toy Story.  After the Celebration there will be a potluck meal at the church, and all are welcome.

The Celebration of Life service will also be live-streamed via Zoom.

Join the Zoom Meeting https://us06web.zoom.us/j/7195619565?pwd=AgAy0Og2fZfrayGC90azAvqwwhMICS.1&omn=83406492802                                           Meeting ID: 719 561 9565                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     Passcode: 12ag5U

If the link above does not work, please go to http://www.zoom.us.  Select Join a Meeting, and use the codes above.

Joni always insisted that we not send flowers, so from the ARCOS family to the Roberts family, we will be sending Joni’s favorite Chicago Board of Directors meeting snack, Garrett’s Popcorn Mix to the potluck.

Here is the link to Joni’s obituary:  Obituary for Jonean Roberts | July 23, 2024 | Noblin Funeral Service  There is a Tribute Wall available.

If anyone would like to send a card to the Roberts Family the address is 417 Mesa Road, Belen, NM  87002

On a personal note, I believe, as many of you do, that ARCOS is better for having Joni as a member, board member, and friend.
