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. 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 diligent in formulating the training for our residents in this busy inner-city hospital, which serves a wide variety of patients,” said Seeth Vivek, M.D., chair of the department of psychiatry at Brookdale.“ Our trainees have been exposed to most clinical situations that they will encounter in their careers. We are proud of our faculty and our trainees.”
Vivek is also treasurer of the New York State Psychiatric Association and the Queens Psychiatric Society representative to the APA Assembly.
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. ▪
