Emergency medicine

I start my Emergency Medicine clerkship at University tomorrow morning. It's only a two-week clerkship, graded pass/fail. The best part is that I've already been working at the University emergency department for the past year-and-a-half with my Foundations of Doctoring preceptor. That means I already know where everything is, how to use their computer system, and I already know most of the attendings and residents and nurses. This will be a welcome change, starting a new clerkship with absolutely no learning curve.

Also, all of my shifts except for one are from 12pm-8pm with no rounds and no pre-rounds. This is quite a change from the 5am mornings I have gotten used to over the past several months.
