Greetings from Orlando! Orlando Regional Medical Center (ORMC) has had a productive and busy fall season. Following with tradition, we sent our 16 seniors to Denver for ACEP19 with several members of our faculty. We enjoyed the conferences, exhibits and labs ACEP had to offer, but we Floridians also had some fun in the snow this year. We are now looking forward to CORD and SAEM in the spring. Many of our residents and faculty are excited to present their research and lectures.

We continue to keep our didactics interactive and interesting at ORMC. Recently our program organized an obstetrics emergency simulation morning in collaboration with OB faculty from Winnie Palmer Hospital. Residents spent the morning mastering techniques to approach breech deliveries and shoulder dystocia. Additionally, residents participated in simulation for resuscitative hysterectomy.

We recently participated in being part of the medical team at Electric Daisy Carnival with Orange County EMS in their medical tents. We enjoyed representing Orlando Health in the community and seeing some interesting toxicology.

This past winter season, we enjoyed some wonderful time as a residency family with our annual holiday party. We can’t believe how quickly the last year passed, and we are excited for what 2020 brings. We have met many great applicants this past fall and are looking forward to the Match, hoping to welcome 18 new residents to la familia!

We look forward to spring and the second half of the academic year. Hope to see everyone at EM Days! ■
