Residency Retreat: Lake Arrowhead!!
April, 2022
Residency Program Reflection (RPR) is a biannual opportunity for us to identify specific areas in the residency we would like to improve, break into groups to brainstorm solutions, form QI task forces, play games, listen to Dr. Lee sing his own parody songs, eat food, and connect with each other. For the first time since COVID, Spring RPR was in-person at Lake Arrowhead!!
Ready!
Everyone is excited to get our awesome weekend underway.
"On Wednesdays we wear pink!"
While the PGY-3 boys may give off strong bro-vibes at first encounter, they are actually the mean girls of the residency.
Working Hard
The meat and potatoes of RPR is breaking into groups to brainstorm solutions for residency challenges. After this, we played a game where we made up meme subtitles for photos of random residents.
