Clinic
60 minute appointments with overbooks as able. Many residents are able to complete the evaluation and be involved with procedures on patients they are seeing during this time including giving immunizations, placing PIVs, casting, urinary caths, and many more.
All patients must be staffed before leaving the hospital
The high school based clinic is currently up and running. You will be scheduled every other Wednesday with a provider to perform school physicals and acute sick visits at Bethel Regional High School.
Interdisciplinary Rounds are scheduled at 8:00 am on some Thursday mornings in the West Wing Conference Room. Please be on the look out for interesting patients seen at YK to present or come just to listen to other providers present their interesting cases.
Medevac
Use RICE/flex time to go on any medevacs.
Providers may help assist getting 1-2 medevacs during your inpatient or ER shifts as time allows. If you desire to go on more medevacs, please arrange with the medevac team during off hours.
Make sure to have the Medevac Ride-along Release Form completed.

Procedures
Many opportunities are available during your time in Bethel to perform procedures. You will be given 2 RICE days to take advantage of these opportunities.
In the past, residents have arranged time in the mornings to present to the OR for intubation and IV practice on patients who are having dental rehab. Please call the OR at 543-6177 the day before to arrange with OR staff.
Resident-Initiated Clinic Experience – “RICE”
Goal:
Provide educational opportunities unique to Bethel experience as an adjunct to primary care clinic
Expectations:
RICE day will be an 8 to 12 hour shift
Plan your desired activities for a RICE day at least 5 days ahead of the day it is scheduled.
Review your plan with site director or designated faculty member no later than 48 hours before each RICE day
Check in with designated faculty at start of RICE day – this will be your point of contact for the day. She/he will arrange for you to work either in clinic or on the inpatient side if your planned RICE activities fall through
Keep activity log of experiences, length of time spent, point of contact
De-brief RICE experiences at end of day with faculty
De-brief RICE experiences with residency director at end of week
Evaluate your RICE activity after each RICE day so that we can continue to add/subtract/improve these educational experiences for future residents
