Background: Individualized Learning Plans (ILPs) are standardized forms that allow graduating students to self-identify goals, strengths, and weaknesses prior to starting residency. The Coalition for Physician Accountability has advocated for their use in the undergraduate (UME) to graduate medical education (GME) transition. A pilot of ILPs in pediatrics demonstrated moderate usefulness. However, within internal medicine […]

Background: Advanced Practice Providers (APP) are an expanding workforce within hospital medicine. Training and onboarding APPs is essential for developing a confident and competent workforce. However, onboarding options for APP training in hospital-based medicine have been limited due to the breadth and complexity of knowledge required to practice. Purpose: To develop an inpatient hospital medicine […]

Background: Hospitalists routinely precept third year medical students on general internal medicine wards. One of the key patient care tasks for students is to interpret and initiate management for common electrolyte abnormalities. Formal training to achieve this is lacking for students transitioning from preclinical to clinical years. We designed and implemented a module on interpreting […]

Background: An increasing amount of literature demonstrates the detrimental impact of discrimination and microaggressions at personal and institutional levels in the healthcare workplace (1-5). Confronting these displays of bias involves a multifaceted approach across professional disciplines and hierarchies. Residency is a time when physicians experience and learn to navigate bias (6). To address this, we […]

Background: The 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is an essential tool when evaluating patients with suspected cardiopulmonary disease and inaccurate ECG interpretation may result in adverse patient outcomes. The Alliance for Academic Internal Medicine stated that ECG interpretation should be a skill required for medical school transition to residency. Yet, prior research indicates graduating medical students correctly […]

Background: The transition from internal medicine resident to early-career hospitalist signals the end of structured clinical feedback in the residency training model. This abrupt transition can impact well-being and the continued formation of self-directed learning skills. In addition, studies have shown an association between practicing in the first year as a hospitalist and inferior patient […]

Background: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a goal-directed ultrasound exam performed by a healthcare provider to answer a specific question or guide performance of an invasive procedure at the bedside. The Alliance for Academic Internal Medicine (AAIM) and the American College of Physicians (ACP) support the integration of POCUS into graduate medical education (GME).Emergency medicine (EM) […]

Background: Feedback in clinical training is essential to reinforce positive behaviors and to provide areas for improvement. Numeric ratings from student performance evaluations are helpful but are not sufficient to guide the learner about where they may be excelling and where they may need additional development. Narrative written feedback both reinforces verbal feedback and provides […]
