The Future of Education
What if I told you…… We aren’t training physicians for tomorrow –We train them for yesterday
What if I told you…… We don’t empower decision making –We protect them from it (ACGME Duty Hours)
Resident Response to Duty Hours-NEJM Survey % stated quality of education is worse 27% thought safety of patient care worsened 51.5% states rules made preparation for senior role worse
What if I told you…… Hospitals & patients are frustrated with our product –Hospitals & communities may develop their own programs
