Friday afternoon is Friday School. Residents in the metropolitan New Orleans return to main campus for didactic teachings on Friday afternoon. Residents from distant sites participate via Zoom. Didactic sessions include seminars, lectures and simulation trainings.
The Tulane OB/GYN Residency Program is in compliance with the work hour requirement as set forth by ACGME.
At Tulane, for hospitals that require residents to be in-house, we created two resident shifts to cover the 24 hour in-house duty: a day team and a night float team. Therefore, our residents do not have 24 hour consecutive hours in-house call.
Home calls are instituted at other hospitals that do not require residents to be in-house.
