Background:

Existing guidelines for family practice resident training in newborn medicine are insufficient and lack specific content.
Traditional training has emphasized rotation duration over essential knowledge and skills for newborn care.
There is a clear need for a structured, competency-based curriculum tailored to the realities of family physician practice.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and describe a comprehensive, competency-based curriculum for family practice residents in newborn medicine.
To define the essential knowledge, skills, and attitudes required for family physicians managing newborns.
To outline the appropriate role of family physicians in neonatal care and integrate this into residency training.

Main Methods:

Development of a curriculum based on identified needs and the actual newborn patient encounters of family physicians.
Focus on defining specific competencies, including knowledge, skills, and attitudes.
Integration of the curriculum into daily residency training and assessment processes.

Main Results:

The paper details the creation, content, and practical implementation of the proposed newborn medicine curriculum.
The curriculum addresses the identified gaps in traditional residency training for family physicians.
It provides a framework for assessing resident competency in newborn healthcare.

Conclusions:

A well-defined, competency-based curriculum is crucial for effective family practice resident training in newborn medicine.
The developed curriculum offers a practical solution to enhance resident preparedness for managing neonatal issues.
This approach supports the documentation of resident competency and improves the quality of newborn care provided by family physicians.
