The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Concepts of Health and Illness

Health is a condition of the body, mind, and spirit where an individual remains free from illness. Similarly, wellness is an active state, including living a lifestyle that promotes physical, mental, and emotional health. Physical health is critical for the overall well-being and can be affected by lifestyle, activity level, diet, and behavior. The highest attainable standard of health is a fundamental and universal human right. Consider Lisa, a fifteen-year-old born with congenital...

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

882
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Area of Science:

  • Medical writing and communications
  • Continuing medical education (CME)
  • Continuing professional development (CPD)

Background:

  • Medical writers are crucial for planning and delivering accredited CME/CPD educational programs.
  • Existing training for CME/CPD writers lacks a defined competency model.
  • A structured model is needed to train future medical writers in this specialized field.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a competency model for training medical writers who create CME/CPD materials.
  • To identify essential knowledge areas, skills, attitudes, and deliverables (KSADs) for effective CME/CPD writing.

Main Methods:

  • A modified Delphi method was employed over three rounds of questionnaires.
  • A diverse panel of stakeholders rated and suggested KSADs for inclusion in the model.
  • Consensus criteria were established to validate the identified KSADs.

Main Results:

  • 38 essential knowledge, skills, and attitudes (KSAs) were identified for medical writers in CME/CPD.
  • These KSAs span accredited continuing education, healthcare, and medical communications.
  • Six in-demand deliverables were identified, including needs assessments and educational program agendas.

Conclusions:

  • The developed competency model provides a framework for training medical writers in CME/CPD.
  • This model can guide the creation of targeted training programs for specialized medical writers.
  • It addresses a gap in the professional development of writers in the accredited continuing education sector.
