Internal Medicine Residency News, Feb. 10, 2020

From the Director

Whoa! What a game! Thanks to Tony Gutierrez for hosting the Stead night at the Duke-UNC game and to everyone for their flexibility in moving locations. Sorry to not be able to join, but still super happy about the ending of that instant classic.

Thanks to those who came to the fellowship session last Tuesday. A repeat of the same info will happen at 6 p.m. on Feb 11!

Kudos
Kudos this week go to Sean Doerfler for his great SAR talk, to Sheila Sherzoy for her awesome SAR talk and Ahmad Mourad for chair’s conference! 

Congratulations to Jung Ko and Allison Moore on the birth of baby Harry! Welcome to the #dukefamily.

Also MANY thanks to all who have been pulled this past week – flu/winter illness season is not sparing the residency – we really appreciate everyone looking out for each other and their patients.

PubMed from the Program​
This week’s pubmed from the program goes to our chief Amanda Boyd, along with Duke IM Res alum Shai Posner for their JAMA Clinical Challenge publication “Dysphagia in a 30 year old woman” with GI attending Amit Patel!

Have a great week!
Aimee

Narrative Medicine Returns Feb. 28
IM Residency's Narrative Medicine group will meet Feb. 28 at 6:30 p.m. in the Med Res Library. Dr. Galanos (Dr. G) will precept this session. If you are interested, please RSVP to Govind Krishnan. We have found in the past that a small group fosters a sense of intimacy and allows for open sharing, so we will limit attendance to the first 10 people who RSVP.

The theme for this session will be "Relationships." If you are interested in writing a piece, feel free to write about anything this word might bring to your mind, be it the relationships you form with patients, with your co-residents, with family, or of course romantic ones. So as to give everyone who wishes to, a chance to discuss their piece, invite commentary, and open it up for discussion, we ask that you limit your piece to less than 1,000 words. So we can share our pieces with others prior to the session, if you are able to, please email Govind your piece by 2/25/2020. As a final thought, our narrative medicine sessions are considered a safe space: Whatever is shared in our session, we ask that you keep private without express permission to share with others. As always, food will be provided! 

Feeling down? Need to talk to someone? Opportunities for Wellness
All trainees at Duke have FREE access to Personal Assistance Services (PAS), which is the faculty/employee assistance program of Duke University. The staff of licensed professionals offer confidential assessment, short-term counseling, and referrals to help resolve a range of personal, work, and family problems. PAS services are available free of charge to Duke faculty and staff, and their immediate family members. An appointment to meet with a PAS counselor may be arranged by calling the PAS office at 919-416-1PAS (919-416-1727), Monday through Friday between 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. For assistance after hours, residents and fellows can call the Blood and Body Fluid Hotline (115 inside DUH, 919-684-1115 outside) for referral to behavioral health resources. Another resource is Duke Outpatient Psychiatry Referrals at (919) 684-0100 or 1-888-ASK-DUKE. https://www.hr.duke.edu/pas/
