Program Training, Rotations and Research


Resident Surgical Training

The Residency Program in Orthopaedic Surgery at Loyola Medical Center follows the standards established by the ACGME for Orthopaedic surgical training. Surgical logs of all operative experience PGY-2 – PGY-5 must report operative procedures and manipulations for which they were resident surgeons or assistants. Procedures which residents observe should not be reported. 

Your user ID is the same as your e-mail and network sign-on. The password is your SSN. Please sign on and change your password. A Resident’s Manual for the ACGME software is included at the end of this document.

The quarterly reports are printed remotely and maintained by the department in your file. All operative experience is monitored and reviewed by the Program Director for substance, volume and other essentials.

It is the responsibility of each resident to enter a log of all surgical cases at the conclusion of each rotation.

Successful completion of each clinical rotation requires:

  1. Acceptable log for that period
  2. Resident evaluation of faculty member
  3. Faculty evaluation of resident’s achievements of rotation goals and objectives
