Our training is being in the constant state of just when you're starting to get comfortable and get the hang of things, they rip you out and throw you into a new place where you start all over again. During the third year, we change assignments every 3-4 weeks. So I'm at one hospital for 4 weeks doing Internal Medicine. By the start of the fourth week, I'll feel like I'm really hitting my stride. That's when I'll be moved over to a different hospital with a different attending with a different electronic medical record (EMR) with a different patient population. It's basically like starting and getting evaluated at a new job every 4 weeks. Rat in a maze, indeed.
