Everyone teaches here, attendings, specialists, senior residents, junior residents, nurses, respiratory therapists or pharmacists. At any hour of the day or night, any team member is ready to stop to help refine my knowledge, as I am to help them. We get good, constructive feedback from our fellow residents and attendings that helps polish our skills and techniques. It is a learning environment like no other. |
