Amazing CaRMS Results for 2013

Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to send out a huge congrats to all the soon to be new PGY1s who matched to our site in the first round. We're thrilled that we are fully matched in the first round with 8 excellent candidates and cannot wait to meet everyone! We are definitely brainstorming fun social events for the summer :).
As for the PGY1s, we have all been keeping pretty busy - many of us took part in the CaRMS interview process which was an enlightening and enjoyable experience. Also, we all recently travelled to Kingston for the site wide research day. It was great to be able to see all the interesting projects out there and I think it really inspired all of us for our projects as well.  I find these little trips are also like a mini vacation (unless there's a huge snowstorm lol) and its nice to spend so much time with our colleagues, we usually get the chance to hang out and have dinner as a group which is great.

We recently started our emergency medicine shifts as well as some surgery clinics which have both been highly beneficial.  I know everyone says this but I honestly can't believe how fast time is going - it's been a great year so far!

Congrats again to all the new residents!
-Stephanie
