The goals of the second year include the continuation of developing
skills of history taking and examination, as well as procedural
skills. PL-2 residents also explore some of the subspecialties
in required rotations and electives. A major priority in the
second year is the development of teaching and leadership skills.
During this year, the resident must learn how to lead a
team on the inpatient service, evaluate the performance of
the interns and medical students, and assist them in overcoming
areas of difficulty. In order to be an effective teacher
and physician, the PL-2 resident must continue their medical
education by reading, lecturing and teaching.
