Scope of Job

The position of resident physician involves a combination of supervised, progressively more complex and independent patient evaluation and management functions, formal educational and research activities. Provision of care provided by the resident physician is commensurate with the resident’s level of advancement and competence, under the general supervision of appropriately privileged attending teaching staff in association and cooperation with its affiliated participating institutions, programs that meet the standards established by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education ( ACGME ) and its Residency Review Committees. Through supervised training, it is expected the resident physician will develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes required to enter the unsupervised practice of medicine. Completion of the training qualifies the participant for certification by a specialty board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties ( ABMS ).

Description of Duties

• Participates in the clinical evaluation and care of patients in a variety of patient care settings with sufficient frequency to achieve the competencies required by their discipline under the direct supervision of the attending staff. Residents may write orders and progress notes in patient charts, although attending physicians retain responsibility for the care of patients seen by residents and must review the care of their patients.

• Performs procedures, which are specified by each program director, under the direct supervision of attending physician. Residents may only perform those procedures for which the attending physician has privileges. Once the resident has performed the appropriate number of procedures in a competent fashion the program director will provide notification that the resident is eligible to be certified to perform the procedure without direct supervision.

• Assumes progressive responsibility for patient care activities according to resident’s level of education, ability and experience. The program director and the attending staff will determine the resident’s level of responsibility and autonomy.

• Communicates effectively with their supervising attending regarding the findings of their evaluation, physical examination, interpretation of diagnostic tests, and intended interventions on a continuous basis.

• Participates fully in the educational and scholarly activities of the program and, as required, assumes responsibility for teaching and supervising other residents and students.

• Participates in appropriate institutional committees and councils whose actions affect their education and/or patient care including, but not limited to quality assurance and quality improvement activities.

• Develops a personal program of learning to foster continued professional growth with guidance from the teaching staff.

• Abides by all University policies and procedures, including the provisions of the GME Policy and Procedure Manual, the residency training programs and the regulations of any affiliated institution to which the resident may be assigned.
