Book Description

Residency coordinators juggle a multitude of tasks-supporting residents through a complex educational process, ensuring the program director has the tools and resources he or she needs, and monitoring the program's compliance with ACGME standards. The list goes on and on. Unfortunately, new coordinators are not often given the resources they need to effectively perform these tasks. They are left on their own to navigate complicated standards, overcome scheduling challenges, and master documentation requirements. Failure to quickly learn and carry out these duties puts the program's accreditation at risk. And because standards and expectations are constantly changing, even the most experienced coordinators often find themselves searching for practical, easy-to-understand resources to guide them through day-to-day activities.
