What to Expect When You Offboard from UNM GME

How will you offboard

A formal clearance procedure is required of all Houseofficers as they exit their UNM GME program. This includes Houseofficers moving to a faculty position with UNM.

GME will email outgoing Houseofficers instructions to successfully offboard using New Innovations.

Important information about your salud email account and Cerner/Citrix/Powerchart

Terminated Houseofficers will lose access to these accounts the day after their last day of employment. We recommend you notify/inform personal and professional contacts of your impending status change and where/how you can be reached after your last day. You can retain important personal emails/information by forwarding email(s) to another email account before you leave. There is no retrieving them once your employment is termed.
