Residency Manual

3. Resident Timesheet At the end of each month, the resident should complete their time sheet electronically and have the supervisor of the residency program review and approve it with their signature under the resident's signature. The supervisor will send approved time sheet to Payroll. Timely completion of the time sheet is important for processing.

4. Saturday Attendance/Leave Guidelines (SUNY Salaried Positions)

For annual leave requests involving Saturdays, the resident needs to inform Dr. Diane Calderon for Primary Care, Dr. Daniella Rutner for Vision Rehab, Dr. Shelby Leach for Pediatrics, or Dr. Eva Duchnowski for Contact Lens at least four weeks prior to the date requested. The resident will be required to generate the leave request form and obtain appropriate signatures (chief and program supervisor). No more than one resident is permitted to be out per Saturday per service. Exceptions will be looked at on an individual basis, particularly as it applies to attendance to professional meetings (eg. COVD, AAO). Each resident is allowed no more than one Saturday off per quarter that they are scheduled. Additional Saturdays off MAY be approved if a switch with another resident or other coverage for patient care is made. Exceptions may be looked at on an individual basis. Use of sick days may require a physician’s note. Administrative leave requests for major meetings are reviewed on an individual basis.
