Elective+and+Leave+Requests+and+Off-Service+Contact+List

Off-Service Rotations Fellows scheduled for an off-service rotation (i.e. PICU, Adult ED, OB, etc.) should contact the program coordinator 30-60 days in advance to:
 * Confirm that you are indeed on the schedule to rotate on their service
 * Determine the exact date, time, and location of where you are to report on the first day of duty
 * Communicate any special requests (if permitted) regarding days off (mandatory PEM meetings, exams, etc.)
 * NOTE: Refer to the policies and procedures regarding vacation time during off-service rotations

Electives There is a wide range of electives available and PEM fellows are encouraged to discuss your options with Dr. Young. Once you have decided what elective you wish to take, you should:
 * Contact the service/program and get a verbal approval for the time-frame in which you want to take the elective
 * Complete an "Elective Request" and turn into Shelly. She will process the slip for appropriate signatures
 * THINK THREE MONTHS AHEAD OF YOUR ELECTIVE MONTH so you have plenty of time to submit an elective request form and receive permission.
