Deadline for submitting rotation requests

The deadline for submitting your choice of rotations for the July 1, 2021 academic year is November 13, 2020. After that date, commitments are considered firm. A change in schedule after that date will only be allowed if there is a clear academic reason and the proposed change is approved by the training directors of the site of the initial rotation and the site of the proposed rotation, as well as the program directors. Late requests will be reviewed by the Competence Committee for approval. Since July 1, 2019 residents are required to fill out and submit the program鈥檚 CHANGE of ROTATION FORM (on one45) when requesting a change in rotation after the November 13 deadline.

Opening date for booking rotations

On November 14, 2020 PGY2 residents may begin booking their PGY4 rotations and PGY3 residents may begin booking their PGY5 rotations.

**Deadline to cancel rotation: 3 periods before start of rotation. Requests submitted after this deadline may be declined.

Junior residency rotations, R1鈥 R3

All requests for rotations of the junior residency years, PGY1鈥揚GY3, are submitted via a survey that will be sent to you directly from the program office.

Senior residency rotations, PGY4-PGY5

Residents book all of their rotations (cores, selectives and electives) directly with the training directors with the exception of the PGY4 addictions rotation (via the program office and the Addictions Unit).

Addictions psychiatry rotation, PGY4

All residents are required to complete a part-time 3鈥4 block rotation in addictions psychiatry in their PGY4鈥5 year. This can be combined with another mandatory or elective rotation. A survey will be sent directly from the program office in the PGY 2 year to schedule this rotation.

Minimum duration of rotations

The minimum duration of an elective is 2 periods (see details below).

The minimum duration of a selective is 3 periods (see details below).

The Inpatient Psychiatry and Outpatient Psychiatry rotations must be done as continuous 6 or 7 period rotations (periods 1鈥7 or 8鈥13).

Maximum training duration at any given site

The maximum training duration at any given site is 2 years (26 blocks at one site). The PGY1 rotations, child psychiatry rotation, research, and addictions psychiatry rotation are not counted in this total. The MUHC has two sites (RVH and MGH), but is capped at a maximum duration of 3 years (not 4 years). Exceptions would require approval of the program directors and of the Competence Committee.

Core Rotations

  • Refer to the detailed rotation-specific objectives of training on one45 for each core rotation.

The program is university-based and five years in length. Each year includes 13, 4-week periods.

On July 1, 2020, the PGY1 cohort became the first cohort to transition to the CBME (Competence-Based Medical Education) curriculum.

Basic clinical training: PGY1

  • 2 periods, Stage of residency: Transition to Discipline (psychiatry)
  • 8 periods of medical rotations including:
    • 2 periods of primary care (family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics), 1 period (minimum) family medicine
    • 1 period of neurology

  • 3 periods, Stage of residency: Foundation of discipline
    • Clinical psychiatry rotations including at least 1 period of consultation-liaison

Junior residency: PGY2鈥揚GY3

The PGY2鈥 PGY3 years are the junior clinical years.

The PGY2 year consists of 12 months (13 periods) of adult psychiatry divided between inpatient and outpatient adult psychiatry (approximately 6 months each)

The PGY3 year consists of 12 months (13 periods) divided between child and geriatric psychiatry (approximately 6 months each).

Senior residency: PGY4鈥揚GY5

The PGY4鈥 PGY5 years are the senior clinical years and include 12 months of core rotations in adult complex care, 6 months of selectives, and 6 months of electives.

  • Complex Care Adult Psychiatry: In total, your complex care adult psychiatry rotations must add up to 13 periods.

    • Severe and persistent mental illness (3 or more full-time equivalent periods)
    • Collaborative / Shared Care (2 or more full-time equivalent periods)
    • Addictions psychiatry (part-time 3 or 4 periods, for calculation purposes this counts as 1.5 or 2 full-time equivalent periods)
  • Psychiatry Selectives: 6 months (6鈥7 periods)
    • Content area limited to child psychiatry, geriatric psychiatry, forensic psychiatry, CL psychiatry, addictions, psychotherapy, psychiatric research and/or stage-en-r茅gion (rural community psychiatry)

The elective may consist of an approved rotation in internal medicine, neurology, or other branch of medicine relevant to psychiatry. More than one (1) practice area may be chosen, but the duration of any experience must not be less than two (2) months each.
      • Identical rotations, but at two different sites, can be accepted as a single elective.

Recommendations

Residents are strongly encouraged to complete SPMI in a continuous fashion in order to have a fuller and less fragmented experience. A minimum of 3 full-time equivalent periods is required. If a resident chooses to complete 6 part-time periods, they are encouraged to complete them in a row, at the same site.

Residents planning to complete two half-time rotations at two different sites are required to contact their two training directors at least three months prior to the start of their rotation, in order to see if the scheduling is feasible. This also includes checking how call requirement will be split between the 2 sites, which is decided by the training directors. The pairing of the 2 rotations needs to be approved by both training directors before proceeding.

The program recommends that residents select their half-time rotations at the same site to minimize travel time, improve wellness and minimize fatigue and allow for engagement in leadership positions (teaching fellow or assistant chief resident).

Planning for a successful rotation

Residents need to have an open discussion with each of their supervisors regarding expectations during any rotation. It is advisable to go over the Goals and Objectives of the rotation to see what can aspects can be achieved with the specific supervisor. Residents should share their weekly agenda with all supervisors so that everyone is aware of their clinical, administrative, and educational commitments. The program strongly encourages residents to inform their staff of any upcoming absences due to teaching, program or resident related events. Finally, the program strongly encourages all residents to keep up with their work on a regular basis. Do not accumulate a backlog of write-up and follow-up notes. Residents need to discuss acceptable delays for submitting follow-up notes (the general expectation is that these be done the same day patients are seen) and consultations (this should be discussed with staff but FIVE days is the benchmark except for during the CL rotation where consults should be written the same day patients are seen).

Addictions rotation

  • Refer to the detailed rotation specific objectives of training in research in addictions psychiatry on one45.

You will be contacted by the program office in July of the PGY2 year to schedule this rotation.

Rotation Director: Dr Dara Charney email: dara.charney [at] mcgill.ca

Description: The addictions rotation is based at the Addictions Unit (Griffith Edwards House) of the MUHC-Montreal General Hospital. As this is our only specialized addictions service, all residents rotate through the addictions unit. The rotation is part-time, integrated into the 13 periods of complex care adult psychiatry done in the senior residency years PGY4鈥 PGY5. The options for this rotation are periods 1鈥3, 4鈥7, 8鈥10, or 11鈥13. This is a 3 half-day equivalent rotation that can be matched with another part time senior residency rotation.

Rural Rotation (stage en r茅gion)

  • Refer to the detailed Rotation Specific Objectives of Training in Research in Community or Rural Psychiatry on one45.

In accordance with government of Qu茅bec requirements, residents are expected to complete at least 3 periods of their psychiatric training in a non-urban and/or non-university site.

We have three designated sites for rural psychiatry rotations.

  • CSSS de Suroit in Valleyfield offers a selective rotation in rural psychiatry that can be completed in the senior years.

Rotation Directors:
Dr Henriette Kotue:听ckotue [at] yahoo.fr
Dr Paule Kemgni: paule.kemgni.cisssmo16 [at] ssss.gouv.qc.ca

  • Centre hospitalier Pierre Janet (CHPJ) in Gatineau offers the following rotations:
    • Selective in rural psychiatry
    • Core rotations available at CHPJ include:
      • in-patient psychiatry (PGY2)
      • geriatric psychiatry (PGY3)
      • All PGY4 core rotations except Addictions (CL, SC and SPMI)
      • Forensic psychiatry (PGY4-5)
  • Northern Track: Rural Rotation in Northern Qu茅bec Communities.
    • This rotation consists of week-long visits to Northern Qu茅bec aboriginal communities to deliver psychiatric services, as well as a one-month rotation in Abitibi. The 3-month equivalent rotation consists of 6鈥8 visits spread over residency beginning in the second half of the PGY2 year. Child psychiatry visits may be done during the child psychiatry core rotation, adult psychiatry visits may be done during the second half of the PGY2 year, while the remaining visits are done as electives in the senior years. Applications for this rotation can be made along with other rotation requests in November of the PGY1 year to begin in the PGY2 year. This rotation is considered part of clinical training and is not considered time away from core rotations. If there are more residents wishing to complete this track than there is space (usually 4 spots per year), all applicants will be required to write a short essay explaining why they are motivated to complete this track, will be interviewed and selection of residents will be made by Dr. Nadeau and other Northern Track staff. The program office and the director of this rotation will select residents with the most compelling essays. Participation in the northern track is not considered an absence from clinical duties during the PGY2-3 year and should not be counted towards the 75%. If a resident on the Northern Track is experiencing difficulties during core training, the Competence Committee might recommend and/or require that the resident take a leave from this Track while addressing the areas requiring improvement. In order to remain on Northern Track, more than 75% of visits need to be completed.

Rotation Director : Dr Lucie Nadeau: lucie.nadeau [at] mcgill.ca

Residents are provided with housing and a monetary supplement to cover the cost of travel during rural rotations. Residents who are not proficient in French should contact the program office to make other arrangements.

Designated Rural Rotations Sites at other Qu茅bec Universities

Other options for rural rotations include rotations at designated rural sites of other Qu茅bec universities. These can be requested as an inter-university rotation through the BCI system. The designated sites affiliated with other Qu茅bec universities can be found on the following website:

Rural rotation exemptions

The program will consider exempting residents from the rural rotation requirement under the following circumstances. In order to request exemption residents must write a request that will be presented to the competence committee.

Cases for consideration include:

  1. Complicated pregnancy (requires a physician鈥檚 note).
  2. Residents with children where the resident is the primary caregiver.
  3. Medical condition(s) requiring ongoing care from a physician (requires a physician鈥檚 note).
  4. Unique family circumstances where the resident is the primary caregiver to a sick family member (requires a physician鈥檚 note).
  5. Any other special circumstance.

Rotation outside 看片视频

Inter-university rotations are less than 12 months in duration (trainees remain based and paid at their home school). Inter-university rotations to other Qu茅bec universities are available at: Universit茅 de Montr茅al, Universit茅 Laval and Universit茅 de Sherbrooke. Requests are made through the BCI system a minimum of three months in advance. A "carte mobile" is an inter-university rotation that is 12 months long and during which trainees are based and paid by the host school.

Residents may also spend up to 6 months at a non-accredited site. A non-accredited site is a site in Qu茅bec that is not affiliated with a Qu茅bec university or that is outside of Qu茅bec. For your application to be valid, the PGME office must receive the CMQ form Request for a Rotation in a Non-Accredited Site a minimum of 3 months prior to the start of the rotation. Late submissions will be declined. Please note: rotations at an unaccredited site cannot last more than 3 consecutive months (after a 3 month rotation at an unaccredited site, a resident must do a minimum of 1 month at an accredited site before doing another rotation at an unaccredited site).
