RSA Track - Residency to the Real World: The Missing Curriculum

The AAEM19 RSA Track – Residency to the Real World: The Missing Curriculum focuses on topics not typically covered in residency.

RSA would like to thank Carey D. Chisholm, MD FAAEM and the late Kevin Rodgers, MD MAAEM FAAEM for creating the concept of the track. Dr. Rodgers' support and collaboration in the development of the track with RSA leadership was invaluable. The goal of the track is to prepare residents for their careers in emergency medicine by concentrating on topics such as interviewing, contract negotiation, health policy, ways to prevent burnout, and more.

New in 2019: Ultrasound Simulation and Didactics
RSA has partnered with the AAEM Emergency Ultrasound Section (EUS-AAEM) to bring you a hands-on component to this exciting track. Join us for an afternoon of ultrasound simulation and didactics by some of the best ultrasound educators in EM. *Pre-registration required – limited spots available.
