Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of formal leadership training amongst medical trainees and to review the current literature in this area. Methods A literature review of all PubMed cited articles on Physician Leadership from November 2015 to July 2017 was undertaken. Twenty exemplary articles on physician leadership were identified. Fifteen out of 20 were surveys, several of which included a qualitative component, Two out of 20 were cross-sectional analysis and 3/20 involved structured interviews. Overall findings showed that, formalised teaching of leadership tools is associated with improvements in emotional intelligence, self-confidence, and enhanced relationships with colleagues. In addition, having undergone such training, Doctors had an increased ability to manage conflict, conduct meetings and direct groups. The Non-Consultant Hospital Doctor (NCHD) Committee in The Mater Misericordiae University Hospital (MMUH) identified a need for additional leadership and managerial training to support their current role within the Health Service Executive (HSE). The committee devised an educational lecture series in collaboration with leaders in healthcare, business and management. Verbal and written feedback was collected in the form of an end of course survey and attendance was documented. Results Twenty-five NCHDs attended the Clinical Leadership Programme in MMUH. Fifty-two percent (52%) attended all 5 lectures. Twenty-eight percent (28%) of attendees were male and 72% were female. Eighty percent (80%) were basic specialist trainees or interns and 20% were registrars or higher medical trainees. All participants found the leadership course to be a positive learning experience and reported improvements in leadership skills, management, business planning, career development and quality improvement. Eighty-four percent (84%) were interested in furthering their study in clinical leadership. Ninety-two percent (92%) of participants noted an improvement in hospital wide morale amongst NCHDs following the course. Discussion This series could be replicated in other hospitals throughout the HSE and represents one solution to deliver clinical leadership and management training to NCHDs
目的 评估医学实习生接受正式领导力培训的效果,并回顾该领域的现有文献。方法 对2015年11月至2017年7月期间所有被PubMed引用的关于医师领导力的文章进行文献综述。共识别出20篇关于医师领导力的典范文章。其中20篇中有15篇是调查研究,其中几篇包含定性部分;20篇中有2篇是横断面分析;20篇中有3篇涉及结构化访谈。总体研究结果表明,领导力工具的正规教学与情商提高、自信心增强以及与同事关系的改善相关。此外,接受过此类培训的医生在管理冲突、主持会议和指导团队方面的能力有所提高。仁慈圣母大学医院(MMUH)的非顾问医院医生(NCHD)委员会确定需要额外的领导力和管理培训,以支持他们在卫生服务执行局(HSE)中的当前角色。该委员会与医疗保健、商业和管理领域的领导者合作设计了一个教育讲座系列。通过课程结束时的调查问卷收集了口头和书面反馈,并记录了出勤情况。结果 25名NCHD参加了MMUH的临床领导力课程。52%的人参加了全部5场讲座。28%的参与者为男性,72%为女性。80%为基础专科实习生或实习医生,20%为住院医师或高级医学实习生。所有参与者都认为领导力课程是一次积极的学习经历,并报告称在领导技能、管理、商业规划、职业发展和质量改进方面有所提高。84%的人有兴趣进一步学习临床领导力。92%的参与者指出,课程结束后,NCHD在全院范围内的士气有所提高。讨论 这个系列可以在HSE的其他医院中复制,是为NCHD提供临床领导力和管理培训的一种解决方案
