Stakeholder Groups' Unique Perspectives About the Attending Physician Preceptor Role: A Qualitative Study.

Journal of general internal medicine·2019

Attending physicians' real-world work aligns partially with the CanMEDS framework, particularly regarding behaviors. The framework needs to incorporate contextual influences and adaptive competencies for a more accurate representation of physician roles.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Physician Competency Frameworks
  • Professional Roles

Background:

  • Competency-based medical education (CBME) frameworks rely on research, educational principles, and expert consensus.
  • Understanding the attending physician's role in real-world practice is crucial for effective medical education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the alignment between observed components of the attending physician role and the CanMEDS Physician Competency Framework.
  • To identify gaps in the CanMEDS framework concerning the practical aspects of attending physicians' work.

Main Methods:

  • A sub-study analyzing observational data from attending physicians' working days.
  • Mapping observed role-related components (Competence, Context, Conduct) to CanMEDS 2005 and 2015 frameworks.

Main Results:

  • Many 'Competence' components mapped to the CanMEDS 2015 framework.
  • No 'Context' components were represented in either CanMEDS version.
  • Some 'Conduct' components were represented, with better alignment in the 2015 framework.

Conclusions:

  • The CanMEDS framework has a conceptual gap regarding the contextual influences on physicians' work and the competencies needed to navigate them.
  • Incorporating context and adaptive competencies (Conduct) into curriculum development and the framework itself is recommended.
  • Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) and novel competencies can address these identified gaps.
