摘要

Background

Medical Education between residencies remains siloed. Once residents have chosen their career track, they often lack opportunities to learn with residents in other disciplines. However, residents care for patients in a continuous fashion as they navigate the healthcare system. We created an annual educational session for Internal Medicine and Emergency Medicine residents to learn together about common medical problems they encounter.

Aim

Readers will: 1.

describe the benefits of participating in interdisciplinary resident education,

2.

increase confidence in how to improve interdisciplinary communication, and

 3.

improve ability to plan and implement interdisciplinary education among residencies.

Setting

An independent academic medical center in western Massachusetts.

Participants

Internal Medicine (54), Medicine/Pediatrics (32), and Emergency Medicine (48) residents.

Program Description

Leadership from both residencies identified high yield topics that would provide optimal opportunities to collaborate about patient care and hand offs.

Program Evaluation

Resident evaluations highlighted positive feedback, indicating improved understanding and desire for continued collaboration. Thematic analysis revealed enhanced collegiality and a preference for small-group, case-based learning.

Discussion

Instituting yearly combined education amongst residencies can enhance collegiality and allow opportunities to enhance patient care during transitions from primary care, emergency care and hospitalization. Implementing shared education enhances resident interaction and potentially improves patient care transitions.
