Prior to your first shadowing shift you will be required to take a tour of the Emergency Department. On this tour you will learn where each treatment pod is located, where to put your belongings when you arrive, and where to meet your resident or medical student. When you sign-up for your tour, please choose one that corresponds to the shadowing group you’ve chosen (i.e. yellow or blue). So, if you are going to be shadowing in the yellow group, please sign-up for a yellow group tour. If you are going to be shadowing in the blue group, please sign-up for a blue group tour. Students taking the MetroLink will enter the hospital via the McMillan Hospital entrance (located on Euclid Ave). If you park in the main parking garage (Plaza Garage) in front of the hospital, you will take the escalator up to pedestrian bridge which leads to lobby of the hospital. Regardless of which entrance you use, please follow the directions on hospital map to the Emergency Department elevator (small red square on the map at the end of the blue arrow). This will take you to the waiting room of the E.D.. Students will meet inside the waiting room of the Emergency Department (i.e. go through the metal detector). Please give yourself extra time to find the E.D. as all tour groups will start on time. You are not required to wear your red MedPrep shirt during the tour but professional dress is required (slacks, collared shirt; no t-shirts, shorts, blue jeans or flip flops).
