Resident and Fellow Forum (WhatsApp Group)
Residents and fellows are invited to join the WhatsApp group. In collaboration with the GMEC representatives, the WhatsApp Group is used to facilitate connection, gather valuable feedback, and spark new initiatives. This group is exclusively for residents and fellows and will replace the virtual meeting.
The GMEC representatives will monitor the WhatsApp group to help address any concerns that arise and collaborate with the Office of Graduate Medical Education (OGME) to decide whether these issues should be handled at the program level, escalated to OGME, or brought to the GMEC for discussion.
Reach out to [email protected] for information on how to join!
