Awbrodjr Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Would anyone with a residency under their belt be willing to tell me about their responsibilities in the OR alongside their SP? Do you feel like you are given more leeway with performing parts of the procedures? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrthoTraumaPAC Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I'd like to respond to this even though it is 9 months old. I have the opportunity to start and Ortho residency. I believe in our institution we allow autonomy with experience and repeated examples of quality work. If you have good hands and decision-making skills, you will be given more responsibilities. If you are well trained but can't seem to make things work in the OR, then you get less autonomy. Now, I'd imagine those who are residency trained have more experience and are more likely to have good hands and better able to make good decisions when compared to an untrained ortho pa, therefore, the answer to your question is yes they would.

AbeTheBabe Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 When first starting out, sure. But once you're up to speed how much responsibility you have in the OR is really determined by your specific SP and their preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
