It’s the start of Resident Doctor Appreciation Week!  This week serves as an opportunity to raise awareness of who medical residents are, and acknowledge the critical role they have here at TBRHSC. 

Resident doctors have completed medical school and work at hospitals or at physician clinics to continue their education and training in a specialized field of medicine.  A resident may work like this for two to five years, a period known as residency.

Throughout the week, we hope that students, faculty, and staff will reflect on the significant contribution that residents make to the lives of our patients, while training students and gaining new knowledge themselves.  Our residents are shaping the future of medicine, and for that we sincerely thank them. 

If you see a resident this week, stop and say thank you……you’ll know who they are by the green lanyards they wear.

Read our daily posts and take a few moments to complete this staff quiz for your chance to win a prize!  All those completed by noon on Friday, February 10 will be entered in the draw.
