"strong emphasis on education with the following tenets: active learning, teach to teach, generalist focused education-emphasis and required to teach med students and fellow residents (they train you how to teach correctly and there is a rotation month in 3rd year for you to specifically do teaching)-simulation lab to learn procedures and do mock codes-resident driven program-required EBM presentation and Advocacy project in order to graduate-have a strong domestic abuse center and a multitude of community outreach programs-opportunity to do international elective(including Costa Rica,Guatemala, Ghana, Mozambique, India)-strong fellowship placement-residents are very happy, laid back, have a lot of fun together and really get along-residents seem to follow the motto: work hard/play hard-have a burn unit (there are very few in the northeast)-have ecmo- huge feedback/critique system to identify strengths and weaknesses-focus on building a strong gen peds foundation regardless if you are specializing- strong service to the underserved population-diverse patient population-diversity among residents-they are DO friendly with osteopaths in each class(no problem getting credit for the AOA internship year)-larger patient census=more pathology, night float except PICU/NICU, rotate at Hahneman for nursery-they seem to be ahead of the ball in terms of what becomes requirements from the residency committees, they say that their model is being used by other residency programs."
