This seems like cheap labor. What would this "unaccredited" training program do for the individual who is "hired"?

Hello and thank you for your comment. I understand your concern. We provide training in critical care and offer trainees the same salary and benefits as our PGY-2 trainees in our accredited programs. While this program is unaccredited, it will provide trainees with clinical experience that can help avoid non-clinical gaps in their training. We also have a Program Director who is committed to helping our residents use this program as a stepping stone to their goals and I would be happy to help you get in touch with him if you are interested in learning more about our program.

This is a scam. Real NCC is a fellowship and it's very different than traditional CC. This looks like a cheap labor scam. I would advise anyone considering this to consider anything else

You are correct that this is not the same as the Neurocritical Care Fellowship. This is considered to be a pre-residency fellowship or a pre-residency training program, but due to supervision rules for our patient population we do require the completion of at least a PGY-1 year for our trainees. We work very hard to ensure this is a mutually beneficial arrangement and a meaningful experience for our trainees, and our DIO and PD offer support to trainees as they apply for other positions outside of our institution. I am glad to help you get in touch with them for more information if you are interested or concerned.
