Another Residency Program Joins APA's 100% Club
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.
