Session Title:
Progression to Post-grad
Description:
The purpose of the program is to provide a different approach to medical education in Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island with high quality 12-week (over a 16 week period) learning opportunities in environments that might otherwise be limited by the current discipline-centered selective model with minimal structure and a lack of formalized learning. The P2P will create an educational option for students seeking an exposure to a rural, generalist, community-based experience with a continuity of care and patient-centered educational model that can provide an enriched transition into residency.

Learning Objectives
Blueprint ID Learning Objectives
11538 Take a witnessed complete and accurate patient-centred history appropriate to the patient's experience
11541 Perform a witnessed complete and accurate physical examination based on the patient's problem
11542 Provide opportunities for longitudinal experiences in management of multiple co-morbidities across all age groups, especially for elderly care
11543 Provide opportunities to increase student experiences in areas of need/ interest (e.g. labour and delivery, paediatric dermatology, pap smears, palliation)
11544 Communicate effectively with third parties other than health professionals
11545 Effectively convey oral and written information associated with a medical encounter in an office setting (e.g. health record notes; consultation letter; written discharge summary or verbalization of discharge plan)
11546 Participate effectively with physicians (intra-professional) and other health care professionals (inter-professional) to provide ongoing care for individuals, communities, and populations
11547 Allocate health care resources effectively
11548 Employ information technology as appropriate for patient care and practice management (e.g. EMR; EHR-Meditech)
11549 Review and improve an appropriate clinical deficiency within the office practice (e.g. Chart Audit; QI project- could be clinical such as increase adherence to CPG's for diabetes or better medication management; link with Patient Safety)
11550 Assess and respond to the specific determinants of health relevant to the individual, the community, and/or the population
11551 Apply principles of research and information to learning and practice (e.g. When faced with a new patient problem review/ evaluate the literature and apply to the specific patient issues)
11552 Facilitate the learning of others as part of professional responsibility (e.g. presentation to community group; participate in research project such as research associated with this pilot)
11553 Accept responsibility for ensuring continuity of care (recognizing the complexity of the health care system requires attention to follow-up in the interests of good patient care- lab results, consultations; Understand the circumstances in which relief of continuity of care can occur- transfer of care)
11554 Maintain patient confidentiality
11555 Show respect for others in complex situations (by observing organizational rules, attending scheduled activities on time whenever possible, and being supportive and constructive in situations of unexpected additional duties)
