MOONLIGHTING

Residents are allowed to work in venues outside the residency program so long as it does not interfere with their ability to fulfill their duties and responsibilities and education within the program.

All residents engaging in outside work of a medical nature must be properly licensed and notify the residency office of the nature and hours of their work and the malpractice coverage provided.

The Program Director has discretion to stop “moonlighting” activities, if they are thought to interfere with a resident’s education.
