The Sponsoring Institution through GMEC supports the spirit and letter of the ACGME Clinical Experience and Education requirements as set forth in the Common Program Requirements and related documents July 1, 2017 and subsequent modifications. Though learning occurs in part through clinical service, the training Programs are primarily educational. As such, work requirements including patient care, educational activities, administrative duties, and moonlighting should not prevent adequate rest. The Sponsoring Institution supports the physical and emotional well-being of the House Officer as a necessity for professional and personal development and to guarantee patient safety. The Sponsoring institution has developed and implemented policies and procedures through the GMEC to assure the specific ACGME policies relating to work hours are successfully implemented and monitored. These policies are summarized as:

X.F.1. Maximum Hours of Clinical and Educational Work per Week
X.F.2. Mandatory Time Free of Clinical Work and Education
X.F.3. Maximum Clinical Work and Education Period Length of Work Assignments
X.F.4. Clinical and Educational Work Hours Exceptions
X.F.5. Maximum Frequency of In-House Night Float
X.F.6. Maximum In-House On-Call Frequency
X.F.7. At-Home Call
