The psychiatry residency training program at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., 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 toFocus: The Journal of Lifelong Learning for each year that all of their residents are APA members.
“The psychiatry residency training program at Maimonides Medical Center is dedicated to training residents educated in the United States and throughout the world and to serve our highly diverse, multi-ethnic, multilingual urban community of patients,” said Jeffrey Goldberg, D.O., program director. “APA membership for our psychiatry residents provides an opportunity to enhance their learning about American psychiatry; to be exposed to the latest advances in psychiatric knowledge and treatments; to network with teachers, scholars, and colleagues; and to observe organizational, social, and political factors affecting the care of our patients.”
For Goldberg, becoming involved in organized psychiatry is not just an academic goal set for his residents: Goldberg is a former president of the Kings County District Branch and is currently its public affairs representative.
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.
