The pediatric intern retreat: 20-year evolution of a continuing investment ACADEMIC MEDICINE Klein, E. J., Marcuse, E. K., Jackson, J. C., Watkins, S., Hudgins, L. 2000; 75 (8): 853-857

Abstract

For the past 22 years the interns in pediatrics at the University of Washington and Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center have been relieved of all clinical duties in order to participate in a five-day retreat. The retreat provides an opportunity for the interns to learn more about their classmates, build stronger bonds, and provide mutual support. This retreat has been supported by the hospital, the department of pediatrics, faculty, fellows, and community physicians. The authors describe the history of the Intern Retreat, present its goals, daily activities, and faculty, and discuss how the retreat is funded and supported by the hospital and the medical community.
