style=\"font-size: inherit;\">ategorical Internship Curriculum<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The goal for our PGY1 residents is to develop a strong base in medicine through robust exposure to general medicine wards, ambulatory care, critical care, palliative care, bedside procedures, and an elective of choice.<\/p>\n<h2>Intern Learning Group (ILG)<\/h2>\n<p>The transition period from undergraduate to graduate medical education can be challenging. Our ILG, a half-day learning opportunity, is designed to provide a supportive environment for interns, helping them learn the medical knowledge and skill sets that are essential for the transition from functioning as medical students to practicing at the graduate level. A variety of topics are covered through ILG during one-hour didactic sessions. The didactics curriculum is based on a needs assessment with observation and incorporates Individualized Learning Plans (ILP). Following each didactic session is a one-hour case presentation conference, during which one intern will present a case he or she has seen on any rotation.<\/p>\n<h2>Resident Curriculum<\/h2>\n<p>The goal for our upper-level residents is to build on their foundation to become confident, competent, and independent physicians. Inpatient rotations cover a broad range of clinical disciplines including internal medicine wards, HIV wards, medicine consultation, night float, cardiology, critical care, emergency medicine, and neurology. Additionally, senior housestaff have 2-4 months of electives, including the option of a board study month.<\/p>\n<h2>Preliminary Internships<\/h2>\n<p>Preliminary interns rotate through internal medicine wards, Cardiology, MICU, and night float. They also receive elective months and their ambulatory weeks which may be used to rotate in areas of their chosen specialty.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div class=\"flex-video widescreen\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gDJ74HVk-1M\" title=\"Intern Learning Group\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>[vc_single_image image=&#8221;2728&#8243;] \n        <a class=\"panel no-equilizer panel-mobile text-center colorized\" href=\"https:\/\/lsom.uthscsa.edu\/medicine\/education\/internal-medicine-residency\/apply-now\/\" title=\"\" target=\"\">\n            <span class=\"circle close2x mid-icon\"><span><i class=\"icon-uth-shield\"><\/i><\/span><\/span><br>\n            <h3 >Apply Now<\/h3>\n            <p><\/p>\n        <\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text] Residency Overview Our resident group is divided into cohorts, each on a rotating 4+1 schedule.
