Background: Promoting scholarship and mentorship among trainees and faculty is important for individual career development. Faculty who mentor trainees in improving scholarship performance, help improve their own academic and professional growth. However, many barriers limit faculty engagement in mentoring trainees, including limited time and lack of accessible resources, institutional/leadership support, formal training, and faculty development/structured […]

Background: The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) sets strict guidelines governing work hours for internal medicine trainees, not to exceed 80 hours per week. Though many programs grapple with achieving adherence, few published studies report successful changes to meet these limits. Previous efforts at our institution to reduce patient census on the teaching […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: Nearly 6 million pediatric patients are discharged from the hospital yearly in the United States (AHRQ 2012), and social determinants of health (SDoH) impact discharge outcomes (Nacht 2022). Effective discharge planning prevents patient readmissions (Shapiro 2021), but the literature on how best to educate pediatric trainees is limited (Key-Solle 2010, Widmer 2015). We assessed […]

Background: Academic medical centers (AMCs) have experienced significant clinical growth and have responded to the increase clinical demand by growing the number of hospital medicine services.[1,2] While this unprecedented growth has occurred, it has often outpaced the growth of housestaff training programs which has led to academic hospitalist teams evolving their clinical and educational models […]

Background: Medical students report that approximately 1/3 of their medical education is provided by residents. As a moderate sized community-based hospital, we conducted a needs assessment about our residents’ attitudes and comfort with teaching medical students, which identified residents did not feel prepared to teach medical students nor feel confident in creating teaching talks, and […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: Enhanced physician-nurse collaboration improves patient outcomes. Current interprofessional clinical learning environments, however, rarely engage physicians with nurses and are not based on high-performance team frameworks. Therefore, leaders at the University of Chicago Medicine developed the Improving GME Nursing Interprofessional Team Experiences (IGNITE) program to engage interprofessional healthcare teams, with hospitalist coaches, in institutional performance […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: Current literature shows that many graduating health-professional students are not adequately trained to identify safety hazards [1]. With early integration of patient safety education in medical student education, we hope to reduce the occurrence of adverse events longitudinally throughout an individual’s medical career. Data demonstrates that patient safety simulations are an effective method to […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: The pediatric discharge education process currently struggles with a lack of standardization, miscommunication between care team members, and non-patient-centered discharge communication. These issues contribute to medical errors, increased readmissions, patient dissatisfaction, and unnecessary healthcare costs. The purpose of this study is to understand the current level of caregiver comprehension in our hospital, streamline the […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: The importance of accurate patient documentation for effective medical communication and financial compensation is well-documented. However, appropriate medical billing based on medical documentation is not emphasized in graduate medical education. We performed a review and analysis of resident charting errors during inpatient rotations to improve documentation and billing skills. Methods: A retrospective study was […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: It has been well demonstrated that improving patient health literacy positively impacts patient adherence to their treatment plan as well as patient satisfaction. The time just before hospital discharge is particularly important because the provider can summarize the admission including what the possible etiologies were that prompted admission, in-hospital therapies utilized, and what the […]
