Children's Healthcare of Atlanta
The responsibilities which have already been established for the PGY 2 and PGY 3 residents will be applied at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. The goals of this rotation are to acquire a broad knowledge of developmental, neoplastic, infectious and traumatic disorders affecting the developing nervous system, and to become proficient in the evaluation and management of patients with common pediatric problems.
This rotation will enable the resident to appreciate and understand the differences in disease states in the pediatric patient as compared to the adult patient. This single resident rotation provides an opportunity for the resident to develop skills in the management of a clinical service and communication skills under close supervision by the attending staff.
