Rotation Order
The sequence of rotations within each heavy black box above can be varied as long as they remain within the box, but should not be moved to a position outside that respective box. Thus, PL-1 rotations can occur in any order during the PL-1 year, with the exception of the PSTPD/Harris Health outpt block, which is in block 5 for all residents. In the second year, there are 3 groups of rotations. The PL-2 research block will always be in block 6. PICU, TCH PFW, Subspecialty-u, Liver/GI or Core, and Cardiology will all preferentially occur in the blocks 1-5 of the second year. However, if it is necessary to give someone a vacation during block 1-5 time, one of the vacation-allowed rotations (i.e. Harris Health outpt-u, Community Pediatrics, or Elective) can be substituted for one of the block 1-5 rotations. The substituted rotation will then occur within blocks 7-11 of the PL-2 year; they will not be moved to block 12 or 13.
