Welcome to your Emergency Medicine rotation at Advocate Christ Medical Center Department of Emergency Medicine. We hope that you will find your experience both exciting and informative. Emergency Medicine is a challenging field that utilizes every aspect of medicine. The rotation is structured for fourth year medical students who have had some exposure to the core rotations such as pediatrics, internal medicine, surgery and OB/Gyne. The Department of Emergency Medicine at Advocate Christ Hospital is one of the busiest trauma center in Illinois. We are the second busiest emergency department in the stated and the 5th biggest by size. We expect your rotation with us to be challenging but structured in a way to help you learn and grow.

Orientation is held on the first Monday of your rotation. We will meet in the Department of Emergency Medicine at 9:30 am. If that Monday is a holiday the orientation will be moved to the next day at the discretion of the Coordinator. The first day is orientation only and does not require patient contact so you may dress casual. Orientation will take approximately 1-2 hours. If after reading through this orientation you have any questions please email me.
