Pittsburgh has several well known sports teams and the residency program provides free tickets for Pirates, Steelers, and Penguins games that are raffled throughout the year. We love spending a night off supporting our local teams and enjoying the beautiful view from PNC park with our co-residents. We also participate in our own sports!
Pittsburgh has many amazing breweries for residents to explore! An added perk is getting a Pittsburgh Brewery Guide to collect stamps as you make your way through the city breweries. A residency favorite is Trace Brewery, which is close to the hospital and has buy one get one free drinks on Tuesdays with your badge!
Whether it is a wedding, a baby, or pets, celebrating with our co-residents is the easiest thing to do. Insider info: one of our residents signed her marriage license in the CHP Healing Garden right before her night shift!
A unique part of our program is that interns get one week off all together at the end of intern year before transitioning into second year. In the past, interns have taken this time off to travel together, spend time with family, relax, and even hike Mount Kilimanjaro!
When we're not working, we're always out enjoying friends, family, and all that Pittsburgh has to offer!
