As an emerging and rapidly growing specialty, academic hospitalists face unique challenges in career advancement. Key mentoring needs, especially developing reputation and relationships outside of their institution are often challenging.
We describe the structure of a novel Visiting Professorship in Hospital Medicine Program. It utilizes reciprocal exchanges of hospitalist faculty at the rank of late assistant to early associate professor. The program is designed explicitly to facilitate spread of innovation between institutions through a presentation by the visiting professor and exposure to an innovation at the host hospital medicine group. It provides a platform to advance the career success of both early- and midcareer hospitalist faculty through 1-on-1 coaching sessions between the visiting professor and early-career faculty at the host institution and commitment by visiting professors to engage in mentoring after the visit.
Five academic hospitalist groups participated. Seven visiting professors met with 29 early-career faculty. Experience following faculty exchange visits demonstrates program effectiveness, as perceived by both early-career faculty and the visiting professors, in advancing the goals of mentorship and career advancement. One-year follow-up suggests that 62% of early-career faculty will engage in subsequent interactions with the visiting professor, and half report spread of innovation between academic hospital medicine groups.
The Visiting Professorship in Hospital Medicine offers a low-cost framework to promote collaboration between academic hospital medicine groups and facilitate interinstitutional hospitalist mentoring. It is reported to be effective for the goal of professional development for midcareer hospitalists. Journal of Hospital Medicine 2016;11:714-718. © 2016 Society of Hospital Medicine.
作为一个新兴且快速发展的专业领域，学术型住院医师面临着职业发展方面的独特挑战。关键的指导需求，尤其是在机构之外建立声誉和人际关系，往往具有挑战性。
我们描述了医院医学项目中一个新型客座教授职位的结构。它利用了助理教授后期至副教授早期职级的住院医师教员的相互交流。该项目的明确设计目的是通过客座教授的演讲以及让其接触主办医院医学团队的一项创新，来促进机构间的创新传播。它通过客座教授与主办机构的早期职业教员之间的一对一辅导课程，以及客座教授承诺在访问后进行指导，为早期和中期职业的住院医师教员的职业成功提供了一个平台。
五个学术型住院医师团队参与其中。七位客座教授与29名早期职业教员进行了会面。教员交流访问后的经验表明，早期职业教员和客座教授都认为该项目在推进指导目标和职业发展方面是有效的。一年的随访表明，62%的早期职业教员将与客座教授进行后续互动，并且有一半报告称学术医院医学团队之间有创新传播。
医院医学客座教授职位提供了一个低成本的框架，以促进学术医院医学团队之间的合作，并促进机构间住院医师的指导。据报道，它对于中期职业住院医师的专业发展目标是有效的。《医院医学杂志》2016年；11:714 - 718。© 2016医院医学协会。
