Reflective Practice & Leadership in Medicine & Medical Education (Out of Print)

Abstract

Abstract This resource is a comprehensive website aimed to help medical educators prepare physicians and allied health professionals for the leadership dimensions of their roles. Specifically, this site will help medical professionals apply the principles of reflective practice and leadership (RPL) to all of their responsibilities, whether assisting patients, teaching, conducting research, serving as mentors, or supporting colleagues. A complete review of the website will equip a medical educator to design and pilot an RPL educational event in his or her own institution. The methods detailed on the website are the result of 12 years of work with residents, fellows, and practicing physicians in a variety of specialties and settings. Our measured outcomes clearly indicate that physician learners find the methods engaging and useful in addressing elements of four out of the six core competency domains set forth by the ACGME (patient care, practice-based learning, interpersonal/communication skills, and professionalism).
