- Students are to check in with the residents the morning of the first day of rotating at HMC.
- 6:00am rounds occur in the Neuroradiology reading room, located on the 1 West hospital sky bridge:
- Students should introduce themselves to Dr. Wiseman or Dr. Steege at the 7:30 am huddle (in 2 West Hospital room 81, aka the Neurocritical Care conference room) to see when students may round with them. Students need to make sure Dr. Steege or Dr. Wiseman know they are interested in observing any family conferences and brain death exams that come up. ***Dr. Wiseman and Dr. Steege work alternate months. The clerkship coordinator will let students know months they are working.
- The Neurocritical Care teams are represented at the 7:30 am huddle (located in 2W-81). If you are interested in rounding with the Neurocritical Care team, please ask either then or the day prior if you may round with them. Rounds begin at 8:05 in the team room just adjacent to the conference room. Typically, the team has joint rounds with Neurology at that time.
- Besides the clinics and cases below, students may also have the opportunity to observe in the Angio suite, Gamma Knife, Neurocritical Care, and Stroke Codes.
- To observe Stroke Codes when at HMC: Call the paging operator (206 744-0147) to request your cell phone be alerted when there is a Code (call them at end of the day to cancel the alerts). Usually, these take place in the ER. Go down to the location of the Code. Try to observe while staying out of the way. Whenever possible, students should introduce themselves to the Neurology resident or fellow. If the patient goes to the Angio Suite for mechanical thrombectomy, students may be able to accompany them.
