If the resident has not been successful in completing the requirements as stated during the Performance Counselling process or has otherwise failed to meet other program requirements as outlined in this Policy, the Radiation Oncology Physics Residency Program Committee (ROPRPC) will review the resident’s file.
PROCEDURE
-
Normally, where three separate Performance Counselling meetings have been initiated, any additional occurrences requiring further intervention will be sufficient cause to recommend the resident’s position be terminated. This shall not, however, prevent the earlier termination of a resident from the program where considered appropriate by the ROPRPC.
-
The ROPRPC shall meet with the resident regarding the resident’s performance or conduct.
-
After meeting, the ROPRPC will determine if the resident is to be dismissed from the Program. Following the meeting, a letter will be given to the resident outlining the decision of the ROPRPC
-
If the resident is not dismissed, the ROPRPC shall outline any conditions which need to be met by the resident in order for the resident to continue in the Program. The resident and the Program Director will sign the letter which signifies that the resident has been informed of his/her status.
