Hurricanes in Gulf Coast Region

Resources for Residents

The ACGME has posted on its Web site guidelines for program directors, DIOs, residents, and others who are working to recover from the hurricane's impact on graduate medical education. Affected program directors and DIOs are asked to provide plans to continue their programs to the RRCs by October 1.

ABMS is acting as a clearinghouse for questions about potential interruptions of residents' education programs in relation to specialty board requirements. Program directors and others seeking guidance should contact ABMS through its e-mail system.
