Improving the transition from PGY-1 to PGY-2

The transition from functioning as an intern in the first year of residency to leading inpatient teams in the second year of residency and beyond is a challenging one for internal medicine trainees. We seek to understand how best to help our trainees navigate this transition by conducting a needs assessment of current internal medicine residents in small focus groups. Through these meetings we will collect and aggregate the experiences of residents who have made this transition, and use their feedback, challenges, and suggested areas for growth to build a curriculum designed to empower trainees to make this transition with confidence. We aim to publish our findings to assist other training programs in addressing this same issue, however our primary goal is to use our findings internally to improve our resident experience as well as patient care.
