core content of emergency medicine. There is an emphasis on the
quality of presentations, with audiovisuals and handouts commonly
used. Skills labs are held monthly to teach residents procedures
in a controlled environment. Morning Report is held daily and all
emergency medicine residents in the hospital are expected to
