Moonlighting

Professional Activities Outside the Scope of Training ("moonlighting")

It is the policy of the UCLA Department of Surgery, General Surgery Residency Program to comply with the American Board of Surgery, and the Residency Review Committee in Surgery of the ACGME.

Professional activities outside the scope and intent of residency training detract from the resident's educational experience and may adversely affect patient care. It is the policy of the Department of Surgery, General Surgery Residency Program that absolutely no such activities or any type of outside employment may occur during assignment to clinical rotations.

Participation in outside employment may be allowed during assignment to the research period. Formal approval for such activities must be obtained from the Program Director and the research mentor or principal investigator. Any residents not in good academic standing with the program will not be allowed to participate in moonlighting activities until being reinstated to good standing.

Violation of this policy may result in immediate dismissal from the training program.
