Patient-centered integrative plan “I’ll take the stairs at work and walk around the building during my breaks. I liked the guided imagery I used for my surgery – can I use it to help me with the weight and food craving? I can take the metformin at night but it makes me go to the bathroom at work so I’ll use the cinnamon in the morning and metformin at night. I’ll use my pedometer to measure my steps so I can see how I’m doing. My goal is to improve my energy and my sugar” 11

Integrative Medicine and the AAMC Core Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) for entering Residency The Core EPAs for Entering Residency are designed to be a subset of all of the graduation requirements of a medical school. Individual schools may have additional mission-specific graduation requirements, and specialties may have specific EPAs that would be required after the student has made the specialty decision but before residency matriculation. The Core EPAs may also be foundational to an EPA for any practicing physician or for specialty-specific EPAs. AAMC 2014
