Spring 2020: AdventHealth East Orlando

by fcepadmin | Apr 20, 2020

Hello again from AdventHealth East Orlando! We cannot believe Match Day has already come and gone. We look forward to meeting our soon-to-be interns and welcoming them to our East family. On a similar note, it is amazing to think we are already so close to the end of the academic year. Soon scores for the In-Training Exam will be released, signaling another benchmark closer to graduation for our seniors.

Our seniors are completing their last round of trauma rotations as they rapidly prepare our interns for their quick transition to second-years. The fact that soon we will all be stepping into our new roles is somewhat daunting.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns to encourage social distancing and the health of our residency, we completed our Annual Program Evaluation as a video conference. We have also transitioned to weekly online conferences in effort to continue our educational pursuits while navigating through this uncharted and undersupplied territory.

As always, we are so proud of our soon-to-be graduates, as well as our rising second-years and seniors, as we have watched them see patients and deal with workflow. Our current residents continue to actively seek opportunities to teach the next generation as they learn concomitantly from the attendings on all the current literature. We are excited for all we continue to learn and grateful for the learning opportunities. To our colleagues, please stay safe, be well and we are happy to stand with you, as we are all in this together. ■
