Emergency Room
All second-year residents complete one block in the emergency room at
Bellevue's world-renowned Adult Emergency Service (AES). House officers
have the privilege of working as fully integrated members of the
ER team in this level I trauma center, where they see an incredible
diversity of cases during their four-week block. Each house officer
completes eighteen 12-hour shifts (8 a.m.-8 p.m. or 8 p.m.-8 a.m.).

Medical Consultation
The block rotation on medical consultation service are an essential
part of the third year of training.These rotations are supervised
by fulltime attending physicians who round with the residents daily.The
primary focus is the preoperative evalution of surgical patients
with medical comorbidities.In addition the medical consult provides
advice to all clinical services who care for patients with complex
medical problems. Finally, the medical consult is responsible for
leading resuscitation efforts at all in-hospital cardiac arrests
and interfacing with emergency room in the admission process to
the medical service. The formal curriculum in preoperative consultation
occurs in the ambulatory rotations in the second and third year.
