Windsor Regional Hospital's Ouellette and Metropolitan campus offer Emergency Medicine training for residents. ER rotations are conducted at both hospitals to ensure the greatest exposure and variety. During the rotation, residents can expect an exposure to a mix of undifferentiated cases. Residents will see trauma, acute cardiac care, pediatrics and everything in between. Windsor’s Emergency Physicians are highly experienced and accredited from various programs internationally including CCFP EM, FRCP (ER), and ABEM. Residents undertaking an elective in emergency medicine can expect to work 15 to 18, 8 to 10 hour shifts per month. Generally, all training is conducted one on one with the emergency staff physician preceptor. This attention allows increased educational opportunities and the chance to improve resuscitation and procedural skills. Residents can also expect daily shift evaluations and feedback, which count toward an end of rotation summative evaluation from the postgraduate academic director. Generally scheduling is very flexible and vacation and education requests are usually not a problem. Many residents have taken the opportunity to do some time in the fracture clinic, radiology and attend teaching rounds concurrently while doing the emergency medicine training experience.
Scheduling: Generally very flexible and can usually accommodate any and all resident requests.
