Urgent Care SIG - A Focus on Education, Training, and Careers in UC: This session has a little something for everyone! A career in urgent care is multifaceted, and this year we are focusing on the APA pillar of Education. Thinking about developing a new elective? A new fellowship? Looking for tips on best-practice for teaching in busy clinical settings? Ever considered urgent care as a career? Come join our SIG to hear from a four-part panel of pediatricians who have chosen urgent care as a profession.
1. Building interesting curriculum for rotations and electives: what makes UC such a popular choice?
2. UC fellowships and accreditation: the APA pipeline
3. Best practices for bedside teaching in a fast-paced outpatient setting
4. Careers in urgent care: not just a doc-in-a-box
We would love to have attendees from different specialties, settings, and especially trainees! Come peek into the world of pediatric urgent care and see all the exciting work that is being accomplished to foster clinical and educational excellence in one of the fast-growing pediatric acute care settings!
