The second year resident develops the skills and experience necessary to supervise a ward or nursery team and to treat patients effectively in the acute care and intensive care settings. Opportunities are also given for residents to explore various specialties for those who have expressed interest in fellowship programs.

The third year resident has completed most of the basic core of ward, nursery, and outpatient experience. During the year, the resident continues to be a supervising resident on the clinical rotations and gain further experiences in elective areas.
