P137: Methods for teaching managerial skills in the emergency department: a survey of Canadian educators
CJEM(2019)
摘要
Introduction: Emergency department (ED) crowding and increased patient load has been shown to have an impact on physician decision making and patient mortality. As the volumes in Canadian EDs increase, so does the need to effectively prepare new learners for the challenges ahead. This study aims to determine which level of training varying teaching techniques should be employed to educate Emergency Medicine (EM) residents about ED management and flow in the age of competency based medical education. Methods: We designed a survey that contained a previously derived list of ED flow and management teaching strategies. We piloted and edited the survey based on feedback from operations and educational experts. A total of 21 teaching techniques were included in the final survey ranging from didactic teaching sessions to experiential techniques such as residents running the department with supervision. Then, we invited members of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada EM specialty committee, the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians Education Scholarship Section, and the Canadian EM Simulation Educators Collaborative to participate in our survey. We analysed the results using simple descriptive statistics. Results: A total of 21 EM (38% female, 62% male) educators from 11 programs (78% of Royal College Training sites) responded to the survey, representing 7/10 provinces, with a mean years-in-practice of 15.2 years (SD 9.7). All respondents were involved in resident education; 66% had a current formal educational role, such as Program Director. Results showed a universal trend towards teaching flow and management skills later in residency. Participants endorsed 35.93% of teaching strategies for the “Core of discipline” and 39.65% for the “Transition to practice” stages of training. Didactic and observational techniques were occasionally considered acceptable at earlier training stages, whereas experiential teaching techniques were skewed towards the later stages of residency. Conclusion: EM educators from across Canada believe that most teaching techniques for flow are better suited for the later stages of residency training, with didactic techniques more suitable earlier on. This work will inform faculty development on managerial/leadership skills teaching in the ED.
