Changes in Neurosurgery Resident Education During the COVID-19 Pandemic: An Institutional Experience from a Global Epicenter 2020-05-08 .txt text/plain 1107 65 54 Here we present our detailed institutional experience -from an 1,141-bed, tertiary care academic center and six other affiliate hospitals of the Mount Sinai Health System in NYC-on how the re-organization efforts changed our neurosurgical graduate medical education program from the heart of the pandemic. The changes to neurosurgery resident education at Mount Sinai were borne out of a necessity for re-deployment of our physicians to assist in the fight against COVID-19, given the sheer abundance of positive patients in NYC. The Emory University Department of Neurosurgery reported similar changes for residents covering their neurosurgical service and each resident is to spend one week during the month of April caring for COVID-19 patients. The COVID-19 pandemic has required our department to change resident education to an exceptional degree, but we are continuing neurosurgical learning in innovative ways while heeding the call to care for NYC's sickest patients. ./cache/cord-339478-v7by6dnp.txt ./txt/cord-339478-v7by6dnp.txt
