Study Notes
Residency Program Requirements
- Program Director: A faculty member must be appointed as the Program Director, responsible for the overall program, including adhering to all program requirements. The Sponsoring Institution's GMEC must approve changes in the program director and verify their licensure and clinical appointment. Final approval, however, rests with the Review Committee.
- Core Faculty:
- Core faculty must demonstrate a strong interest in resident education.
- They must devote time to the educational program to fulfill their supervisory and teaching responsibilities.
- Core faculty should administer and maintain a conducive educational environment for residents.
- They must actively participate in organized clinical discussions, rounds, journal clubs, and conferences.
- They should pursue faculty development at least annually.
- Faculty Development: This refers to structured programming designed to enhance the transfer of knowledge, skills, and behaviors from educators to learners. Faculty development programs should be needs-based, addressing individual or group needs, and may be specific to the institution or the program.
- Program Coordinator: There must be a program coordinator, with dedicated time and support to manage the program's administration, based on its size and configuration. The Review Committee must specify the minimum dedicated time for the program coordinator.
- Resident Evaluation: The final evaluation must be incorporated into the resident’s permanent record, accessible for review by the resident, and shared with the resident upon program completion. The evaluation must verify that the resident has demonstrated the necessary knowledge, skills, and behaviors to enter autonomous practice.
- Clinical Competency Committee: The program director must appoint a Clinical Competency Committee. This committee must include at least three program faculty members, with one being a core faculty member. Additional members can be faculty from the same or other programs, or other health professionals with substantial experience in the program. The program director carries the ultimate responsibility for resident evaluation and promotion decisions.
