Summary
Community hospitals are expanding graduate medical education (GME) programs, requiring direct-care physicians to develop teaching skills. Faculty development workshops successfully increased physician confidence in educating trainees, offering a model for other institutions.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Healthcare Systems
Background:
- Graduate medical education (GME) is expanding into community hospitals.
- Direct-care physicians in these settings require new educational supervision skills.
Purpose of the Study:
- To pilot faculty development programming for community hospital physicians.
- To support the integration of community physicians into trainee education.
Main Methods:
- Collaborated with GME program directors at community hospitals.
- Conducted 14 one-hour workshops on educational topics.
- Evaluated impact through surveys and program director interviews.
Main Results:
- Faculty showed buy-in and increased confidence in teaching.
- Workshops were well-received, with suggestions for improved promotion and clinician co-presenters.
Conclusions:
- Engaging program directors is key to building teaching capacity.
- This model supports direct-care physicians in new GME roles and can guide other academic medical centers.

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

Hospitals provide inpatient and outpatient services. Inpatient services provide care to patients that stay in the hospital for an extended period, ranging from days to months. Examples of inpatient services include intensive care units, hospital wards, or surgeries. Outpatient services provide care to patients who come to a hospital for a diagnostic or treatment but do not stay overnight —for example, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, or health education.

Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...

Hospitals offer medical and surgical care to the sick and injured, along with accommodation while they recover. At the same time, they also provide outpatient, emergency, psychiatric, and rehabilitation services to meet various community needs. In addition to providing medical care, hospitals also act as hubs for medical research and training. Hospitals use clinical procedures and evidence-based practice standards to deliver patient care. To deliver safe and efficient care, a nurse must stay up...
