“…Knowing these students would be around for an entire year, supervisors were able to count on continuity of performance of these students in their roles. This active learning (Hurtubise & Roman, 2014) through supported participation (Dornan et al, 2007) in the actual practice of medicine was the key to success for our participants.…”

“…This clerkship (referred to as a 'Phase three placement' in the curriculum) consisted of a 2 day per week embedded placement in a General Practice, where, as students, they learned though parallel consulting (Walters, Worley, Prideaux, & Lange, 2008) in a competency based training program (Chacko, 2014;Hurtubise & Roman, 2014). Specialty placements were also undertaken for 2 days per week in a rural hospital or specialist clinic.…”

Background: We interviewed graduates from the first two cohorts of a postgraduate medical program that had a senior year longitudinal integrated clerkship (LIC) in a practice setting in rural New South Wales, Australia to determine how well their training prepared them to be junior doctors (3-4 years after graduation), and what aspects of that training they thought were particularly useful. Methods: In-depth interviews. Results: Fourteen junior doctors were interviewed. Participants reported feeling well prepared in ability to develop close relationships with clinical supervisors, good clinical and procedural skills, ability to work autonomously and work in teams, knowledge of health systems, ability to ensure self-care, and professionalism. Consensus view was that a rural placement was an excellent way to learn medicine for a variety of reasons including relationships with clinicians, less competition for access to patients, and opportunities to extend their clinical skills and act up to intern level. Conclusion: The advantages we found in the training these junior doctors received which prepared them well for internship were integral both to the longitudinal, unstructured placement, and to the fact that it was carried out in a rural area. The two aspects of these placements appear to act synergistically, reinforcing the learning experience.

Competency-based medical education: An overview and application in pharmacology

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Competency-based medical education (CBME) is gaining momentum across the globe. The Medical Council of India has described the basic competencies required of an Indian Medical Graduate and designed a competency-based module on attitudes and communication. Widespread adoption of a competency-based approach would mean a paradigm shift in the current approach to medical education. CBME, hence, needs to be reviewed for its usefulness and limitations in the Indian context. This article describes the rationale of CBME and provides an overview of its components, i.e., competency, entrustable professional activity, and milestones. It elaborates how CBME could be implemented in an institute, in the context of basic sciences in general and pharmacology in particular. The promises and perils of CBME that need to be kept in mind to maximize its gains are described.

“…However, in situ training requires space in the health facility and flexibility to incorporate urgent clinical demands into the learning experience [16, 17]. Integrating competency-based education more fully into pre-service education is supported by current educational theory [36, 37]. Students in a variety of health disciplines (nursing, midwifery, medicine, community health) can benefit from educational elements that emphasize practical skills and smooth their transition to the clinical setting.…”

Achieving the targets of the Every Newborn Action Plan by the year 2030 will require accelerating the current reduction in neonatal mortality. Educational programs addressing the three major causes of neonatal death-intrapartumrelated events (asphyxia), prematurity and small size at birth, and infection-have the potential to significantly reduce preventable mortality. Helping Babies Breathe is an example of an educational program that not only has given health care providers around the world access to current resuscitation science but has changed provider behavior and patient outcomes and resulted in perinatal quality improvement in small-and large-scale trials. However, to realize impact on neonatal mortality at the population level, perinatal educational programs that comprehensively address all aspects of essential newborn care must be implemented at scale with high coverage and quality.
