Hospitalist
Training Program Preceptorship is a hospital medicine teaching service which
serves as a core development experience for our Hospitalist Training Program
(HTP) residents as well as an elective for categorical residents and
occasionally interns.
The service
has the unique ability to simulate an independent hospitalist experience for
learners and does so by pairing a member of the HTP Core Faculty with one or
two residents at a time. The team functions without formal rounds and an
emphasis is placed on developing physician autonomy, efficiency, and the skills
to facilitate life-long learning. Many residents take advantage of the close
mentorship provided by the HTP Faculty to learn about careers in hospital medicine
and to work through their own career choices.
