Daryl Pedler and Nancy Tran presented research on assisting medical students' development of clinical reasoning skills in a longitudinal integrated clerkship program. The presentation addressed potential biases and conflicts of interest. It also discussed a hypothesis generating research project involving interviews with graduate-entry medical students in their first clinical year spent in a longitudinal integrated clerkship model. Some of the issues raised in the interviews were how factors of the longitudinal integrated clerkship impact the acquisition of clinical reasoning skills and the relationships between clinical reasoning, pathophysiology knowledge, and communication skill development.

The document discusses a simulation training program for teaching medical residents how to properly disclose medical errors to patients and their families. The training uses role-playing simulations with standardized patients to practice disclosing a narcotic overdose error. Initial findings show the simulation helped residents identify weaknesses and improve their disclosure skills, though some still struggled with aspects like speculation. The training aims to emphasize clear communication, apologizing without blame, and focusing on patient care when disclosing errors.

This document describes a curriculum developed to teach medical residents how to have difficult conversations with families of patients with dementia about goals of care. The curriculum uses video modules and role playing to teach residents communication skills like empathy, cultural sensitivity, and knowledge of palliative care options. An evaluation compares residents who received the training to control groups. The goals are to encourage these important conversations before crises arise and improve patient-centered care for those with advanced dementia.
Project PARIS: Parents And Residents In Session
Project PARIS involves parents of previously hospitalized children presenting on aspects of family-centered care to physician residents. The goal is to improve the residents' knowledge and attitudes towards family-centered care. Parents discuss their experiences and a manual is used. Residents complete pre- and post-session questionnaires to evaluate the impact. Topics discussed include family meetings, communication, impact of hospitalization, and barriers to family-centered care. Initial results found increased acceptance of family-centered care concepts after the sessions. The project aims to extend these sessions to other trainees and integrate them more fully into training programs.
Hu.med presentation draft
The document proposes a new healthcare platform to connect patients, doctors, and research in order to address issues with the current system. It notes that patients often feel isolated, confused, and depressed after diagnosis. The platform would allow patients to create personal profiles, join support groups, and easily communicate with doctors. It would also connect patients to relevant medical research studies. The goal is to empower patients by giving them community support and making them feel more informed.
Patient and Family Education
Medical social workers serve important roles in various medical settings by providing patient and family education, advocacy, and coordinating care. They educate patients and families about illnesses, treatment plans, and available resources. Medical social workers also provide counseling and therapy to help patients and loved ones cope with the emotional distress of a diagnosis or medical condition. Their goal is to ensure patients receive holistic, compassionate care through care coordination and addressing their medical and psychosocial needs.

ICCH 2011--Agenda-setting in Routine Ambulatory Encounters:
Background: Although studies have demonstrated that physicians often fail to elicit the full spectrum of patient concerns, few studies have described the ways in which physicians elicit concerns and the extent to which they set an explicit agenda.
Methods: We performed a qualitative analysis of audio recorded, transcribed routine patient-provider encounters from the Enhancing Communication and HIV Outcomes (ECHO) Study. We developed themes related to whether and how providers elicit patient concerns and then set an agenda for the visit. We developed a coding scheme that we applied to a random selection of 2 encounters per provider (33 providers, 66 encounters total).
Findings: In 41/66 encounters, providers opened the visit with a general question (“How are you doing?”). Seven visits opened with a leading question (“Everything’s okay?”) and 1 with the provider explicitly asking which concerns s/the patient wanted to discuss. Patients more often responded to these opening questions with brief positive statements (“Fine”, n=30) than with actual concerns (n=14). In 12 encounters (18%), the provider continued to elicit concerns until the patient stated that s/he had no further concerns (probe to exhaustion). In 30 encounters, there was no agenda statement. When an agenda statement was made, it most often (n=20) centered on physicians’ priorities. Rarely, there was an agenda statement made by the patient (n=3) or one that was collaboratively negotiated (n=3). In 53% of encounters (n=35), patients brought up new concerns later in their visit.
Implications: Providers frequently use generic opening questions that may not be effective in eliciting patients’ concerns, and then do not continue to elicit further concerns. Negotiation of the visit agenda is rare, and new concerns continue to arise later in most encounters. Providers need further training to more effectively invest in the beginning of each encounter.

This document describes a model for rural health education for first-year medical students at Texas A&M College of Medicine. The program aims to help students understand barriers to healthcare in rural communities. Students are paired with underserved families in Holland, Texas and work in interprofessional teams to address the families' healthcare needs and goals. Over two years, 27 students participated. A survey found that 93% of students increased their knowledge of difficulties associated with rural living and healthcare access barriers. The program was successful in enhancing students' understanding of social determinants of health and rural community issues early in their medical education.
GHEI Poster (1)
The Global Health Engagement Initiative (GHEI) surveyed 200 minority-serving institutions (MSIs) to understand barriers minority students face in global health. It found the largest barriers were lack of finances and access to opportunities. 59% of minority respondents cited lack of support for travel, jobs, and mentorship in academic programs. The survey also found 34% of institutions had less than 15% minority students in global health programs. It recommends offering comprehensive funding for overseas opportunities, diversifying funding sources for research, and developing mentorship programs to support minority students in global health.
9 Progress Summary
This document provides a professional progress summary for a nursing student's transition to professional nursing practice course. The purpose is for students to reflect on their growth and development through the nursing program. By reviewing their perspectives at the beginning, middle, and end of the program for each of the eight core competencies, students can see how their critical thinking, nursing practice, teaching, research, leadership, professionalism, and cultural awareness has improved. Demonstrating growth in these areas through a self-evaluation assignment provides evidence of achieving several program learning objectives related to clinical judgment, nursing care, education, research, leadership, ethics, and diversity.

ABSTRACT
This paper reports on a project exploring the ‘state of the art’ in teaching social science research methods to undergraduate medical students. Drawing on ongoing research involving reviewing the literature and consultation with the 32 UK medical schools, I will describe some of the emerging issues around the content, organisation, delivery and assessment of provision of teaching and learning and propose some early thoughts about opportunities and challenges in developing and supporting the academics and learners in this field. The session will be interactive including opportunities for participants to reflect on, to debate and discuss the extent to which these issues are germane to their practice and experience and my emerging prospectus for social scientists ‘working away from home’ in medical education and indeed in other disciplines.

This document discusses research into continuing medical education (CME) for general practitioners (GPs) in palliative care. It finds that current CME offerings are uncoordinated, have large gaps, and have low attendance. GPs prefer lifelong learning and find current CME inefficient. Workplace learning with palliative home care teams is preferred. When nurses on these teams are trained as facilitators, it can enhance GPs' learning by exploring opportunities, giving feedback, and facilitating reflection. This workplace learning approach views the healthcare team as a complex adaptive system that can adapt and improve its functioning through learning.
