We have seven faculty members in our department who serve as Intensivists in our SICU and CTICU, further strengthening this relationship with our surgeons. Our residents also rotate through various ICU settings where they form friendships with surgical attendings and residents which carry into the OR setting. We are proud of the collegial relationship we maintain with our surgeons, nursing and ancillary colleagues. Over the course of your training, you will develop great working relationships with your surgical peers at UNC.<br \/>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What is the role of CRNAs, AAs and anesthesia techs within the department?<\/h2>\n<span class=\"collapseomatic \" id=\"id69db75ff04a9b\"  tabindex=\"0\" title=\"(Read More)\"    >(Read More)<\/span><div id=\"target-id69db75ff04a9b\" class=\"collapseomatic_content \">\nWe have &gt;80 Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) in our department who help support our educational and clinical mission. This allows our residents great flexibility with elective rotations and opportunities outside of the OR environment. The relationship between CRNAs, faculty, and residents is very collegial and collaborative. We mutually support each other in our joint mission of excellent patient care and quality education. Student Nurse Anesthetists (SRNAs) from Duke rotate through our department. They are always paired with our CRNAs, and are never supervised by residents. In addition, we also have a wonderful small group of AAs as well who are important members of our team!\u00a0 Our clinical teams are additionally supported by 35 full-time Anesthesia Tech (ATs) and 3 PRN Techs (includes ambulatory care \/ UNC Hospitals&#8217; Hillsborough campus). One supervisor leads the dedicated AT corps who serve our patients at UNC Medical Center and all other UNC Health anesthesia care locations. Our AT team also manages 4-6 Durham Tech AT students on rotation at UNC Anesthesiology practice sites.<br \/>\n<\/div>\n<h2>What is the role of fellows in the department?<\/h2>\n<span class=\"collapseomatic \" id=\"id69db75ff04b4e\"  tabindex=\"0\" title=\"(Read More)\"    >(Read More)<\/span><div id=\"target-id69db75ff04b4e\" class=\"collapseomatic_content \">\nWe currently offer 4 fellowships through our department: Pain Medicine, Pediatric Anesthesia, Obstetric Anesthesia, and Regional Anesthesia. The fellows in these groups primarily serve in a supervisory role and do not limit the learning and procedural opportunities of our residents. Pediatric fellows either perform their own cases or act in a supervisory role for cases. They also serve as mentors to residents. The Obstetric and Regional fellows serve as instructors and mentors for residents during their obstetric and regional rotations. The vast majority of procedures on these rotations (spinals, epidurals, nerve blocks) are performed by residents.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/anesthesiology\/education\/pediatric-fellowship\/\">Pediatric Anesthesiology Fellowship<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/anesthesiology\/education\/obstetric-anesthesiology-fellowship\/\">Obstetric Anesthesiology Fellowship<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/anesthesiology\/education\/regional-fellowship\/\">Regional Anesthesiology and Acute Pain Fellowship<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/anesthesiology\/education\/pain-fellowship\">Pain Medicine Fellowship<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Do residents have to travel to many different hospitals for rotations?<\/h2>\n<span class=\"collapseomatic \" id=\"id69db75ff04be7\"  tabindex=\"0\" title=\"(Read More)\"    >(Read More)<\/span><div id=\"target-id69db75ff04be7\" class=\"collapseomatic_content \">\n<div>Our residents spend the vast majority of their time at our main hospitals (UNC Medical Center) in Chapel Hill. They have a 2-week rotation at UNC Hospitals Hillsborough campus and may choose to do some elective time there as well. Residents may go off-site occasionally during their two-week out-of-OR rotation. Some of our senior residents choose to do an international elective in Africa or the Health Policy Elective at George Washington University in Washington, DC.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row
