IMPORTANT!---When you have completed this survey, don't forget to click on the "Submit" button at the very bottom. If you need to complete a survey on an additional faculty member, please do not go "back" through the screens, instead, go "forward" and log in again. Although you are not required to fill in narrative comments at the end of each section, it is helpful if you do so. Almost all of the other types of questions must be answered in order to submit the survey, so do your best to provide an answer, but don't skip questions. Thank you very much! * * * * * * This survey is for Interns and Residents on the Inpatient General Internal Medicine Service to confidentially and anonymously evaluate their teaching attendings. If you have had more than one significant teaching attending during the rotation, please fill out a survey for each attending. We know that you already fill out an incredible number of forms (and we are very appreciative). This is one of our main ways of providing feedback to teaching faculty and encouraging "quality improvement". [When the survey asks about "reading" assignments, this can refer to any assigned "homework", such as review of articles, online video, etc.] Thank you again for your help!
