Another Residency Program Joins APA's 100% Club

Published Online:1 Sep 2006https://doi.org/10.1176/pn.41.17.0022

The psychiatry residency training program at Bergen Regional Medical Center in Paramus, N.J., 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.

M. Javed Iqbal, M.D., the program's training director, said, “Our psychiatry residency training program is designed to give residents clinical experience in all areas of adult and child psychiatry, to provide sound theoretical and clinical training, and to establish a foundation for future specialization. The residents, under the guidance and supervision of an experienced faculty, gain a broad clinical expertise in care and treatment of a diversified patient population.”

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. ▪
