The Next Fellowship Virtual Cafe will be in 2 Weeks June 10th

Problem: getting fingerprints which is needed for licenscing in the state - no solution yet.

We did video apartment tours- Nationwide Cribs. They think they are hilarious

My completing fellows shared their housing via email with the incoming fellows, allowing them to get a jump on taking the open spot.

Our state medical board waived the fingerprint requirement

We are having issues with a slow turn around time for licensing. Doing what we can (may have to use the COVID registry if possible).

one trainee slow to get paperwork done (redeployed in hotspot) plus slower turnaround times

We have a fellow coming from Israel, but they currently have a travel ban to the US - so we are hoping she can get here on time, but also trying to make plans in case she can't.

Yes the Canada:USA border remains closed to non essential travel until 6/21 at which point further assessment will occur. :(

Our GME is doing the bulk of orientation online thru modules and our HR group will be doing Zoom sessions. We are planning on holding our 'standard' departmental orientation on the first day, however, are working on back-up plans if needed.

We have 6 incoming fellows. We are planning in person training.

Our GME is doing Zoom, but we are going to do live with social distrancing if at all possible.

mix- we have our faculty as of now on non-clinical work from home. We will probably do combinations of in person, zoom for everyone, fellows together but sometimes faculty zooming in. We also are going to try to do as much of our didactic outside as weather permits. Hopefully mixing modalities keeps it less boring

We had to 're-work' our Simulation Boot camp due to COVID restrictions so that is going to look very different this year. We will hold 2 sessions with smaller groups.

We do a lot of simulation and procedure training for our NICU new NICU fellows prior to clinical exposures. We are bringing in our 6 fellows in staggered sessions. This will be a lot of extra time for our med ed team.

We are doing it virtually at Stanford GME and Dept-wide (45 incoming fellows). Individual fellowships may do in-person.

In our center, we teach NRP to peds, med-peds house staff, and OB interns. Lots of trainees. We have scheduled 6 sessions to teach NRP with social distancing

Our PICU does not consider that currently although we have a faculty member trained in it and willing to teach our fellows should the option open to us. We don't have clinic; only patients in the units.

Nicole Paradise Black (University of Florida) is building a national telehealth curriculum for APPD.

We are waiting to see how our EMR training will happen-usually all fellows have to sit thru a training session about this.

Love your idea of a zoom meeting ahead of time with incoming fellows!

We have encouraged our fellows to reach out a lot more than previously. Our fellows are still working on planning a 'welcome to Riley' meal, but with the option of it being virtual if needed.

we had a zoom happy hour this week with the newbs

We are going to host a few across all the peds subs too

we involve our NNP leads (they are part of our recruiting committee

How are your institutions handling badges for access?

my security office is asking for pics being sent in

We are going to see if we can have fellows upload pictures and they will make and a PC will pick up...still working on it.

Our institution is having pics be submitted by the fellows and then the GME office will deliver to each program coordinator.

Please send any ides for future topics to the APPD Fellowship Program Directors' Executive Committee members

are there any updates on the match dates and rank list dates?

Match and Rank Dates are staying as planned.

You should reach out to the business world for tips on interviewing over zoom?

thanks
