Download or read book Graduate Medical Education Outcomes and Metrics written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graduate medical education (GME) is critical to the career development of individual physicians, to the functioning of many teaching institutions, and to the production of our physician workforce. However, recent reports have called for substantial reform of GME. The current lack of established GME outcome measures limits our ability to assess the impact of individual graduates, the performance of residency programs and teaching institutions, and the collective contribution of GME graduates to the physician workforce. To examine the opportunities and challenges in measuring and assessing GME outcomes, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop on October 10â€"11, 2017, in Washington, DC. Workshop participants discussed: meaningful and measurable outcomes of GME; possible metrics that could be used to track these GME outcomes; possible mechanisms for collecting, collating, analyzing, and reporting these data; and further work to accomplish this ambitious goal. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
Download or read book In the Nation s Compelling Interest written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-29 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is rapidly transforming into one of the most racially and ethnically diverse nations in the world. Groups commonly referred to as minorities-including Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, African Americans, Hispanics, American Indians, and Alaska Natives-are the fastest growing segments of the population and emerging as the nation's majority. Despite the rapid growth of racial and ethnic minority groups, their representation among the nation's health professionals has grown only modestly in the past 25 years. This alarming disparity has prompted the recent creation of initiatives to increase diversity in health professions. In the Nation's Compelling Interest considers the benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity, and identifies institutional and policy-level mechanisms to garner broad support among health professions leaders, community members, and other key stakeholders to implement these strategies. Assessing the potential benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity among health professionals will improve the access to and quality of healthcare for all Americans.
Download or read book Educating Physicians written by Molly Cooke and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-05-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PRAISE FOR EDUCATING PHYSICIANS "Educating Physicians provides a masterful analysis of undergraduate and graduate medical education in the United States today. It represents a major educational document, based firmly on educational psychology, learning theory, empirical studies, and careful personal observations of many individual programs. It also recognizes the importance of financing, regulation, and institutional culture on the learning environment, which suffuses its recommendations for reform with cogency and power. Most important, like Abraham Flexner's classic study a century ago, the report recognizes that medical education and practice, at their core, are profoundly moral enterprises. This is a landmark volume that merits attention from anyone even peripherally involved with medical education." —Kenneth M. Ludmerer, author, Time to Heal: American Medical Education from the Turn of the Century to the Era of Managed Care "This is a very important book that comes at a critical time in our nation's history. We will not have enduring health care reform in this country unless we rethink our medical education paradigms. This book is a call to arms for doing just that." —George E. Thibault, president, Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation "The authors provide us with the evidence-based model for physician education with associated changes in infrastructure, policy, and our roles as educators. Whether you agree or not with their conclusions, if you are a teacher this book is a must-read as it will frame both what and how we discuss medical education throughout the current century." —Deborah Simpson, associate dean for educational support and evaluation, Medical College of Wisconsin "A provocative book that provides us with a creative vision for medical education. Using in-depth case studies of innovative educational practices illustrating what is actually possible, the authors provide sage advice for transforming medical education on the basis of learning theories and educational research." —Judith L. Bowen, professor of medicine, Oregon Health & Science University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a practicing emergency physician, The White Coat Investor is a high-yield manual that specifically deals with the financial issues facing medical students, residents, physicians, dentists, and similar high-income professionals.

Download or read book Graduate Medical Education Re Think Re Claim Re Design Re Create written by Brenda Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-22 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graduate Medical Education needs a stress test now to improve and enhance the health and well-being of its community members. As a member of the GME community for a decade, I found that no matter where in the U.S. I worked or in which specialty I was overseeing, I encountered the same barriers to the foundation of GME, the same challenges faced by trainees, and the same threats to members' health and well-being. After a decade in the GME community, I felt compelled to formally analyze its challenges and devise improvements for its processes, practices, structure, and oversight, from medical school candidates for residency to accreditation to the GME Office to residency and fellowship programs and their learning environments. Professional, successful, knowledgeable GME administrators are seeking safer, less stressful, and more rewarding positions outside the GME community. Practicing physicians are experiencing violence in their workplaces. More alarming, medical students, residents, fellows, and practicing physicians exhibit and share their suicidal ideation. I hope my readers will feel and respond to my sense of urgency for transforming the GME community's challenges into enhancements and improvements. This book is my call to action for all members of this community as well as to the general public who may be or may become patients seeking medical treatment. I have shared experiences I encountered as examples that illuminate areas that need immediate correction. These are concrete problems and issues pervasive in the GME community. I have included scientific support and metrics for readers to examine and contemplate. I have revealed the realities of working in the GME community to bring attention to the current, continual challenges its members face daily. I sincerely hope readers will become advocates for change to improve the culture of the GME community by: Promoting transparency within GME. Developing strategies to improve the culture of the GME community. Enhancing wellness in medical school and residencies. Improving the medical school and trainee learning environments. Aiding residency candidates in navigation through recruitment and fostering understanding of their role in GME. Assisting residency candidates in the transition to residency. Encouraging programs to strive to be more successful. Assisting residents and fellows to succeed in GME and be prepared for a career transition to practice. Acknowledging the connection between failing programs and lack of training for administrative staff. Changing the current perception of the residency coordinator role to one of administrative director, supervisor, or manager. And also: Trainee Career Transition: Topics include negotiating a contract, interview questions, professional identity formation, marketing your practice, and building referrals. Medical Students: Topics include a behind-the-scenes look at the Match and ERAS from the program point of view, learning what programs look for in a personal statement, get interview questions, and how to be successful during residency.
