==Overview==
==Overview==
The resident survival guide project is a high quality collaborative effort between the Wikidoc editor, associate and assistant editors with prior expertise in medical education and training in various specialties.  This project is designed in a simple but efficient way to address common medical conditions encountered by medical graduates in training such as interns, residents and house staff officers.  Some of the goals for this project is to enhance the abilities of medical and surgical residents in various specialties to properly evaluate, diagnose and treat patients presenting acutely with common medical problems.  It also implements the evidence based approach that healthcare professionals should follow when treating common public health conditions.

It also implements the evidence based approach that healthcare professionals should follow in common public health conditions.
==Statement of Need==
Despite different cultures and circumstances, interns and residents all around the world share common needs. Some of those needs are:


==Goals of the (Resident Survival Guide) Project==
*A quick and effective way to diagnose and treat acute medical problems without having to read a monograph during emergency situations
*A convenient and simple guide to stay informed about the newest approaches and standards of care for common acute medical emergencies
*A systematic approach during emergency situations to help reduce medical errors commonly encountered by interns and residents due to long work hours


* Provide residents in various medical specialties with a quick and effective way to diagnose and treat acute medical problems without having to read a monograph during emergency situations.
==How Can WikiDoc Meet Those Needs==
* Educate medical students and resident with the newest approaches and standard of care for common acute medical emergencies
A joint effort has been initiated among Wikidoc chief, scholars on campus and remote collaborators to provide residents worldwide with a quick and efficient guide to acute medical conditions commonly encountered by house staff. The Wikidoc resident survival guide project specifically addresses house staff in its approach.  It enhances the abilities of medical and surgical residents in various specialties to properly evaluate, diagnose and treat patients presenting acutely with common medical problems.  It also implements the evidence based approach that healthcare professionals should follow when treating common public health conditions.
* Reduce medical errors commonly encountered by interns and residents due to long work hours
* Implement evidence based medicine and recent guidelines
