Faculty Interaction with Residents and Fellows

Fellows are physicians enrolled in educational programs at the graduate level, which are based in the clinical sciences.  They are expected to receive and give feedback in an educational environment that nurtures and encourages their professional and personal achievement of excellence.  Through participation in care of patients and feedback to the faculty, fellows also enhance the quality of patient care and education.

All residents (including Fellows) of AIDHC and the faculty of AIDHC strive to foster a patient care and educational environment permeated with the attributes of proefessionalism – Respect, Compassion, Integrity, Altruism, and Commitment to Excellence.

The faculty of AIDHC affirm their commitment to create an educational environment in which interns, residents and fellows strive for excellence, and may raise and resolve issues without fear of intimidation or harassment, retaliation, or retribution.  Such behavior on the part of any faculty member is unacceptable.

Similarly, AIDHC fellows and residents deport themselves in a fashion that affirms their commitment to a constructive educational environment in which formative and summative feedback and evaluation are accepted in a professional fashion, and the pursuit of excellence is expected.  Behaviors, such as intimidation or harassment, retaliation, or retribution of other members of the health care and educational team on the part of any resident or fellow is unacceptable.
