[The] first two years [of residency] provide the framework of knowledge and surgical skills required to enter orthopaedic surgery and to pass the Principles of Surgery, Royal College examination. The R [residency]1 year is relegated to the evaluation development of clinical skills as they apply to surgery as a generic specialty. R2 rotations consist of orthopaedic training to acquire orthopaedic knowledge at a fundamental level - in particular, with regards to disease classification, surgical indication, and potential surgical complications. In both instances, the junior residents are under the direct supervision of the senior residents and appropriate attending staff. It is important that they attend outpatient clinics and assist in the operating room, as well as day surgery procedures. Patient assessment and clinical judgement along with the understanding of disease process are the goals during the first two years of training. 2, record 3, English, - junior%20resident

Pour les 61 foyers ayant un médecin attaché, la fréquence mensuelle moyenne des visites est de 3.3 et parmi ces foyers, 20 ont un médecin attaché qui vient seulement sur demande. Ce terme n'est pas tout à fait l'équivalent du terme anglais puisque les médecins attachés ne sont pas tous au service d'un foyer comme le sont les "home physicians". Cependant, dans le contexte des personnes âgées, c'est une façon de rendre la notion anglaise. 1, record 6, French, - m%C3%A9decin%20attach%C3%A9
