Additional Resources and Recommended Reading
Additional Resources:
Survival Guide – (downloadable PDF) a valuable resource guide for referencing. The Seattle Children’s Graduate Medical Education Survival Guide resource can be downloaded to your smart phone or other device, though it can be viewed at the above link without downloading. The file is embedded with bookmarks to each section and clickable links to each topic in the table of contents. It works well in phone apps such as Adobe Reader and iBooks, (instructions for the latter if needed.)
Topic of the Week (TOW) – A link to the University of Washington Pediatric Residency website – a weekly teaching topic for continuity clinics. Student have found this to be helpful for reference and learning.
