The psychiatry residency training program at the University of Alabama at Birmingham is the latest residency program to have all of its psychiatry residents become members of APA.
It joins the ranks of an exclusive organization within APA: the 100% Club. This club was established to encourage residents throughout the United States and Canada to join APA and to do so with other trainees in their programs, according to Deborah Hales, M.D., director of APA's Division of Education and Career Development.
A photo of each program that joins the 100% Club will be turned into a poster and mailed to every medical school in the United States and Canada to encourage medical students to join APA. In addition, programs in the 100% Club receive a major textbook from American Psychiatric Publishing Inc. for each year that all of their residents are APA members and a free online subscription to Focus: The Journal of Life-long Learning.
“APA is the one organization every psychiatry resident should join,” said Daniel C. Dahl, M.D., the residency training director.“ APA provides an opportunity to advocate for patients, develop professionally, and network with colleagues. Through the advocacy efforts of the APA Birmingham chapter and district branch, our residents have an opportunity to develop connections with city and state leaders. Residents can see how advocacy leads to better patient care. Further, the opportunity to network with psychiatrists and residents from throughout the country enables our residents to develop goals and perspectives that would be difficult to develop through any other means.”
More information about the 100% Club is available from Nancy Delanoche of APA's Division of Education and Career Development at (703) 907-8635. Programs that are interested in signing up all their residents should also contact Delanoche. ▪
