If two fellows are scheduled for outpatient weeks, the clinic coverage will be shared by the two fellows.
The fellow not in clinic will have time scheduled for public health classes, research, ultrasound or reproductive health training. Fellows take primary call at night for the MCH service two or three times per month. Fellows share back-up coverage for the service and offer consultative services to the primary MCH attending. Fellows are called during this back-up time to consult on complicated patients in L&D and obstetrical triage.
If a C-section, postpartum tubal ligation, D&C, vacuum assisted delivery or complicated perineal repair is needed, the fellow on back-up will perform these procedures with the supervision of the MCH fellowship faculty.
