A "Retreat" for Pediatric Interns

Abraham B. Bergman MD1, Michael B. Rothenberg MD1, and Robert W. Telzrow MD1

1 Department of Pediatrics, University of Washington School of Medicine, and the Children's Orthopedic Hospital and Medical Center, Seattle

For the past two years, pediatric interns at the University of Washington have been relieved of their clinical duties for five days to participate in a "retreat". Their places were taken by pediatric practitioners as a continuing education experience. The chief benefit of the retreat was the coming together of the intern group and the subsequent support they were able to give to each other. The educational content was deemed less important than the fact that the retreat occurred.
