Educational Goals
Goals and Objectives: Outpatient Procedures and Skin Care Goals and Objectives 2017.5.12.docx
The goal of the Ambulatory Surgery rotation is to attend specific specialty surgical clinics, as well as experience some ambulatory procedural training. For many, these procedural experiences are largely gained longitudinally through your clinic and other rotations such as ICU, inpatient, dermatology, Sports Medicine, etc. This block provides an opportunity to gain some additional exposure and experience, as well as brush up on medical knowledge that may not have been obtained up to this point.
Though few Family Physicians perform major surgeries, most participate in preoperative and postoperative care, either in the hospital or in clinic. Some Family Physicians choose to perform various outpatient procedures in the office setting, while almost all help counsel patients about surgical procedures, and make appropriate referrals for surgical care. Competency in specific procedural skills will of course vary based on a resident's exposure, subject to some random variation, and interests. The resources below highlight some of the surgical care management, as well as procedural skills that we believe a Family Medicine physician can attain competency in. Often the process of competency in procedures continues after residency, and is guided by what resident's choose to pursue.
This is not meant to be a complete list of what is possible; other rotations focus more on inpatient procedures such as paracentesis, lumbar puncture (inpatient wards), or joint injection (sports medicine). Please use this rotation to familiarize yourself with the conditions listed below, along with the procedures you are exposed to in your clinic. Consider the linked articles to be a functional curriculum. You are strongly encouraged to read these articles over the course of the block.
