Thanks to our favorite scut monkey, Signout, for hosting grand rounds this week. Signout is a first year medical resident with a wonderful blog.
For those of you not in medicine, the scut monkey is the lowest member of the team, and since it flows downhill, gets to do all the work. (Although medical students are technically lower, and can have tasks assigned to them by the scut monkey, it is ultimately the intern’s job to make sure the work gets done.)
Hopefully, she doesn’t think of grand rounds as scut work. Thanks, Signout.
