Family Medicine Resident Orientation Day

UNDERGRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION ORIENTATION & ONBOARDING

The department worked to create a more efficient and environmentally friendly orientation and onboarding process for the 2013-2014 academic year. Each departments’ orientation package was reviewed to ensure trainees were receiving the most up-to-date information for their rotations. Orientation emails were updated and sent one to two months before a trainee’s rotation as opposed to three or more months in advance. Sending the information closer to the trainee’s start date avoided confusion about upcoming rotations and elicited a greater response for necessary information for the rotation. Onboarding was abbreviated to include the most necessary information. Furthermore, a shortened package was developed for the trainees that had previously registered with the DMES team during the academic year to maximize their time spent on clinical duties.

ASCM I SJHC has hosted one student group of the Art and Science of Clinical Medicine I course, which runs weekly on Friday mornings from September to June and is tutored by our physicians. The course focuses on having students learn in the hospital environment. They have the opportunity to practice a variety of skills for the first time outside the classroom. We look forward to continuing to build and offer this course at the Health Centre for the 2014-2015 academic year.

ASCM II

In addition to ASCM I, we also facilitated select classes for the Art and Science of Clinical Medicine II course for the 2013-2014 year. The DMES team is happy to announce that the Health Centre will increase their contributions to ASCM II by hosting one student group of the course for the full 2014-2015 academic year, which will run weekly on Thursday mornings from September to June.

EXPANDED ROTATIONS The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology continued their support for the Obstetrics undergraduate rotation for the 2013-2014 academic year by hosting clerkship students every two weeks for the FitzGerald and Wightman-Berris Academies. The Health Centre will be taking on a full complement of students for the 2014-2015 academic year by hosting clerkship students for their full six week Obstetrics rotation.

TRANSITION TO RESIDENCY (TTR) The Transition to Residency program was offered again this year in the Departments of Emergency Medicine, Medicine and Surgery. The DMES team worked alongside these departments to accommodate as many fourth year undergraduate students interested in the TTR program as possible.

POSTGRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION

ORIENTATION DAY The DMES team revamped orientation day for the beginning of the 2014-2015 academic year. On July 2nd, 2014, the team hosted a morning orientation session which included eCare training, breakfast, registration and guided tours to receive ID badges, parking passes and dictation numbers. The orientation wrapped up with a trainee and physician welcome BBQ hosted by the DMES team.

eCARE TRAINING With the roll out of electronic patient records, residents carrying out their rotations at SJHC require training on the eCare system when they arrive at the Health Centre. The DMES team integrated the eLearning requirements into the residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; orientation information, and ensured all residents were scheduled for the training session in order to be fully prepared for their time at SJHC.

CTU PROJECT The Clinical Teaching Unit (CTU) is a phenomenon of Academic Health Sciences Centres (AHSCs). Teams of medical trainees at multiple levels of training cover a subset of patients, work with interprofessional staff, and are taught by a faculty appointed physician. July 2014 marked the first time this style of rotation was offered at SJHC. The CTU was developed to provide Family Medicine Residents with their Internal Medicine educational requirements while enhancing the rotation for Internal Medicine Trainees. This also brings to light the size of the medicine program both in terms of the number of beds and faculty members.

FM APPRECIATION / GRADUATION DINNER The annual Family Medicine Resident Appreciation and Graduation Dinner took place Thursday May 8th, 2014 at Pizzeria Defina. The dinner celebrated the Family Medicine Residents’ work through their two years of residency at SJHC and graduating residents were presented with their St. Joseph’s Health Centre recognition certificates.
