One thing that makes the residency program at The University
of Tennessee and Le Bonheur Children' Medical Center stand
apart from other training programs is the opportunity to interact
with students and faculty in a variety of settings. PGY1 and
PGY2 residents have the chance to co-precept students
on many of the rotations at Le Bonheur.

Both the pediatric and neonatal elective courses allow the
resident to develop expertise in the preparation and delivery of
didactic lectures.  In Applied Therapeutics, a weekly small
group discussion class, the resident works with a faculty
preceptor to teach students case presentation skills, disease
state management and the development of care plans.

Weekly pharmacy journal clubs require residents to analyze
current literature and develop  the ability to apply this
information to patient care.

The PGY2 resident is expected to take a leadership role in all
the teaching exercises.
