- Graduate Medical Education
- Professional Skill Development
Background:
- The transition from medical school to residency presents significant developmental challenges.
- Coaching interventions show promise in aiding students' adaptation to residency roles.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the efficacy of a near-peer coaching program for enhancing pre-residency workplace skills.
- To assess the impact of a resident-as-coach model on medical student preparedness.
Main Methods:
- A pilot program assigned resident coaches to medical students during a sub-internship.
- Coaching sessions focused on the 'pre-rounding' skill, with participants evaluated via surveys and focus groups.
Main Results:
- Students reported improved pre-rounding efficiency and identified actionable steps for improvement.
- Residents perceived enhanced coaching abilities, and both groups valued the program's near-peer, skill-focused approach.
Conclusions:
- A resident-as-coach model is effective for preparing students for residency.
- This model concurrently develops residents' coaching competencies, offering a dual benefit.
