To better prepare graduating medical students to transition to the professional responsibilities of residency, 10 medical schools are participating in an Association of American Medical Colleges pilot to evaluate the feasibility of explicitly teaching and assessing 13 Core Entrustable Professional Activities for Entering Residency. The authors focused on operationalizing the concept of entrustment as part of this process.
Starting in 2014, the Entrustment Concept Group, with representatives from each of the pilot schools, guided the development of the structures and processes necessary for formal entrustment decisions associated with students' increased responsibilities at the start of residency.
Guiding principles developed by the group recommend that formal, summative entrustment decisions in undergraduate medical education be made by a trained group, be based on longitudinal performance assessments from multiple assessors, and incorporate day-to-day entrustment judgments by workplace supervisors. Key to entrustment decisions is evidence that students know their limits (discernment), can be relied on to follow through (conscientiousness), and are forthcoming despite potential personal costs (truthfulness), in addition to having the requisite knowledge and skills. The group constructed a developmental framework for discernment, conscientiousness, and truthfulness to pilot a model for transparent entrustment decision making.
The pilot schools are studying a number of questions regarding the pathways to and decisions about entrustment. This work seeks to inform meaningful culture change in undergraduate medical education through a shared understanding of the assessment of trust and a shared trust in that assessment.
为了让即将毕业的医学生更好地向住院医师的专业职责过渡,10所医学院正在参与美国医学院协会的一项试点项目,以评估明确教授和评估13项进入住院医师阶段的核心可托付专业活动的可行性。作为这一过程的一部分,作者专注于将托付的概念付诸实践。
从2014年开始,由各试点学校代表组成的托付概念小组指导制定与住院医师开始时学生责任增加相关的正式托付决策所需的结构和流程。
该小组制定的指导原则建议,本科医学教育中的正式、总结性托付决策应由经过培训的小组做出,基于来自多名评估者的纵向表现评估,并纳入工作场所主管的日常托付判断。托付决策的关键在于有证据表明学生知道自己的局限(辨别力)、可以被信赖贯彻到底(尽责)、尽管可能有个人代价仍能坦诚(诚实),此外还要具备必要的知识和技能。该小组构建了一个关于辨别力、尽责和诚实的发展框架,以试点一个透明托付决策的模型。
试点学校正在研究一些关于托付的途径和决策的问题。这项工作旨在通过对信任评估的共同理解以及对该评估的共同信任,为本科医学教育中有意义的文化变革提供信息。
