The training program is approved for three years by the American Medical Association, American Hospital Associa- tion, American College of Surgeons, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and American Board of Ob- stetrics and Gynecology. During this period of training the Resident rotates through a planned series of assignments in both Obstetrics and Gynecology as well as spending a mini- mum of six months on General Pathology. An opportunity is also available for elective work in Urology and General Surgery. The Interns on Obstetrics are responsible for all histories and physical examinations of labor patients and accomplish a minimum of 12 uncomplicated deliveries under the super- vision of the Resident Staff. They also complete all labor records and charts and are responsible for all initial new- born physical examinations and circumcisions. The Interns on Gynecology are responsible for the histories and physical examinations on all Gynecology admissions and perform minor surgical procedures under supervision of the Resident staff. The First Year Residents are normally four in number and in the event of a great influx of patients or a shortage of Interns they assist in writing admission histories and phys- icals. They examine all unusual cases on the wards. The Second Year Residents are normally four in number. They supervise the activities of the First Year Residents under their immediate jurisdiction. They write an admission summary and progress note on all patients on the Service to which they are assigned. They assure that all interns, his- tories and physicals and First Year Residents' notes are properly written on each patient's record. The Third Year Residents are also four in number. The Senior Third Year Resident is designated the Chief Resident and is responsible for the supervision of all residents junior to him and for the management and care of all patients on the Service. The Third Year Residents are expected to visit all patients on their assigned wards daily. They are responsible for the closing out of all charts on their wards and personally countersign all discharge sum- maries. They keep the Chief Resident informed of all ad- missions and discharges on the Service.
