The psychiatry residency training program at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York City 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 is 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. and a free online subscription to Focus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning for each year that all of their residents are APA members.
“We are very proud of all of our residents for many reasons, including enabling us to join the APA 100% Club,” commented Amy S. Hoffman, M.D., director of Mt. Sinai's psychiatry residency program.“ Our residents already participate in district branch activities such as the annual research competition, and we look forward to their becoming active on a national level. We need the input of trainees at every level to keep our profession moving into the future.”
