Rotation Blocks
Previous Topic  Next Topic 

In order to place your Residents on rotations, you will need to set up your rotation model for each PGY. You can set up your rotation block types by clicking on the Settings icon and selecting Rotations from the menu. Residency Partner .NET defaults to defining a PGY schedule from 7/1/YYYY to 6/30/YYYY.


Adding a Rotation


Once you have selected Rotation Blocks, you will be brought to a screen that will have all of your program's block scheduled defined by PGY.  At first it will be empty until you define your rotation schedules.



Click New. This will allow you to designate a PGY for the rotation schedule template you are creating. Click Add PGY when you are finished.



Next, you will be able to define what kind of rotation (Monthly, 14 Weeks, Annual, etc.) will be used for the PGY you created. Residency Partner .NET defaults to a Monthly rotation schedule. If the PGY that you have defined is a Fellowship Year, check the box in that column. You would repeat this process for all of the PGYs that your program tracks.



Changing the Block Type


If you are defining a PGY that uses a different block type, click on the Block Type that is currently in that column. This will put the cell in an editable mode. At this point you will be able to select from the list of block types that have been defined by your institution.



The grid will update the column and the PGY schedule when you have selected the correct block type. 



Editing Dates


If you need to edit dates for the blocks, simply click the date. This will put the field in an editable mode as seen below. Once you have edited a date, you can click to another date you need to change, add another rotation block schedule or Close. Changes that are made to the dates automatically save.
