We are trying to develop an innovative program built in a “resident centred” way while also incorporating the latest competency based “Triple C” curriculum theories and the nine Queen’s Family Medicine Domains of Clinical Care (DOCCs).
We will emphasize direct observation with the goal of daily field notes and please remember, while we are offering a new program, many of our preceptors are already experienced teachers.
As an FYI, Queen's Family Medicine divides the calendar into 13 four week blocks of time per year.
Here is what we have planned for...
GLOBAL HEALTH (Care of Vulnerable / Underserviced)
- resident identification of local resources / programs / needs in month 1
- possible resident advocacy project (which can be done in lieu of research project)
- learning experiences at Sexual Health Clinic and Community Health Centre
- Queen’s FM modules for items that can’t be provided locally
- QBOL residents also have the opportunity to access Queen’s international elective sites
Here is the link to the Global Health Brainstorming Spreadsheet where I hope to tabulate further ideas for resident learning experiences.
