Objectives to direct the training of emergency medicine residents on off-service rotations: Dermatology

Abstract

This is the fifth in a continuing series of objectives to direct resident training in emergency medicine. Approximately 50% of resident experience and training in emergency medicine takes place outside of the direct control and influence of full-time emergency medicine faculty. To gain some direction and control over these off-service rotations, objectives and references are offered here. Objectives for a dermatology rotation as well as contents and references are presented.
