Another Residency Program Joins APA's 100% Club
For the second year in a row, all the psychiatry residents in the training program at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia are 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 Lifelong Learning.
The director of the psychiatry residency training program at Albert Einstein is Kimberly Best, M.D.
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. ▪
