Do residents receive simulation training in surgical procedures and obstetrical emergencies?
Yes. Our surgical skills curriculum consists of dedicated didactics during protected teaching time, laparoscopic trainers/exercises (each R1 and R2 are paired with a laparoscopic surgery mentor from our faculty,) hysteroscopic trainers, perineal models for laceration repairs as well as abdominal hysterectomy models. Additionally, all PGY 1-3’s attend the Microsurgery and Operative Endoscopy Training (MOET) Institute for 3 days each year. Our Critical Events Team Training (CETT) occurs on a bimonthly basis.
