Welcome
In March 2020, OHNS faculty from around the country communicated with each other about how the COVID situation impacted our programs. We faced the challenge where our clinic and OR schedules reduced significantly. We did not know how long this situation will drag on, but it may be several months. While we were all implementing telemedicine and with a limited OR schedule, it was unlikely to be enough to keep our residents as engaged in learning as we would like.
Together, we organized a Collaborative Multi-Institutional Otolaryngology Residency Education Program, using Zoom.
The program had a class schedule that will rotate through faculty from the various programs that wish to participate. It was a great way for residents to learn from and network with terrific faculty that they would not otherwise get the chance to interact with. Residents can log in to listen to the lectures and participate in the discussions. The lectures were recorded and stored in the cloud so that residents unable to participate in the live activity can watch it later.
The sessions were held from 4-6 PM Pacific Daylight Time on weekdays, featuring outstanding faculty from the community of otolaryngology departments. The teaching schedule rotated through faculty from various institutions. Residents logged in to listen to the lectures and participate in the discussions.
