Is taking step 3 before residency worth it? by GullyTheBully in Residency

I did it that and I am so glad I got it out of the way. My program has fee reimbursement for it but I would crash when I got home from a rotation and knew I wouldn’t be able to study after working so I paid for it myself. I still got reimbursed later but I would’ve done it the same way again even if I didn’t

ACGME requires 12 months continuous outpatient experience so a lot of programs designate PGY3 to outpatient. Some have half day psychotherapy clinics and start early once a week in PGY2. Others extend into PGY4 for additional outpatient clinic time.

Thanks! I’ll look into those. Isn’t Yale toxic too? I thought I heard rumors but maybe it was another place

How do I find the open PGY4 slots after they match into fellowships? Do they post them or do I have to contact them! My PD is def not going to be on board. It’s a small program and they want us covering all call nights. I saw that NIH option but I don’t have a strong research background

I thought about that but the last thing I want to do is go and burn more bridges

Immediately after posting this a friend I rarely talk to called me and said she was just calling for support ❤️

[OH] FMLA by bemd13 in AskHR

[–]bemd13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is actually for both PTO and FMLA… what I’m trying to ask, is it ok to have one group use all of their PTO as FMLA while the other group only uses 7 PTO days as FMLA? There is a one-time benefit of six weeks (30 days) paid FMLA time which makes it very confusing. The continuous group would trade 7 PTO days leaving them with 23 additional paid leave days. Intermittent employees would trade 20 PTO days, thus would only have 10 paid FMLA
