EM PGY I -perform a history and physical exam, start intravenous lines, draw blood, order medications and diagnostic tests, collect and analyze test results and communicate those to the other members of the team and faculty, obtain informed consent, place urinary catheters and nasogastric tubes, assist in the operating room and perform other invasive procedures such as arterial line or central line insertion under the direct supervision of the faculty (or senior residents at the discretion of the responsible faculty member). The resident is expected to exhibit a dedication to the principles of professional preparation that emphasizes primacy of the patient as the focus of care. With the assistance of an assigned mentor or the program director, the first year resident must develop and implement a plan for study, reading and research of selected topics that promotes personal and professional growth and be able to demonstrate successful use of the literature in dealing with patients. The resident should be able to communicate with patients and families about the disease process and the plan of care as outlined by the attending.

EM PGY II - perform some procedures with indirect supervision (such as insertion of central lines, arterial lines) once competency has been documented according to established criteria. The PGY II should be able to demonstrate continued sophistication in the acquisition of knowledge and skills in his/her selected specialty and further ability to function independently in evaluating patient problems and developing a plan for patient care. The resident at the second year level may respond to consults and learn the elements of an appropriate response to consultation in conjunction with the faculty member. The PGY II should be able to incorporate ethical concepts into patient care and discuss these with the patient, family, and other members of the health care team.

EM PGY III - In the third year, the resident should be capable of managing patients with virtually any routine or complicated condition and of supervising the PGY I and PGY II in their daily activities. Individuals in the third post graduate year may perform additional diagnostic and therapeutic procedures with indirect supervision once competency has been documented according to established criteria.The PGY III can perform progressively more complex procedures under the direct supervision of the faculty. It is expected that the third year resident be adept in the use of the literature and routinely demonstrate the ability to research selected topics and present these to the team. At the completion of the third year, the resident should be ready to assume independent practice responsibilities in those specialties requiring three years of training. In those specialties requiring longer training, the resident should demonstrate skills needed to manage a clinical service or be a chief level resident.

EM PGY IV - Individuals in the fourth post graduate year assume an increased level of responsibility as the chief or senior resident on selected services and can perform the full range of complex procedures expected of their specialty under the direct or indirect supervision of the faculty. The fourth year is one of senior leadership and the resident should be able to assume responsibility organizing the service and supervising junior residents and students. The resident should have mastery of the information contained in standard tests and be facile in using the literature to solve specific problems. The resident will be responsible for presentations at conferences and for teaching junior residents and students on a routine basis. The PGY IV should begin to have an understanding of the role of practitioner in an integrated health care delivery system and to be aware of the issues in health care management facing patients and physicians.
