Background and objectives: Many clinical supervisors in family medicine feel ill-equipped to teach senior care to their family medicine residents (trainees). We therefore sought to explore their preferred learning strategies for improving their clinical and teaching skills with regard to senior care. Methods: In this qualitative study, we conduc...

p>To improve the care of seniors living with dementia, current initiatives typically target better identification and treatment of the patient. Our recent survey, however, shows we should also focus more on the needs of the informal caregivers who care for this population in primary care settings. This three-round Delphi survey sought caregivers’ v...

RÉSUMÉ Nous avons évalué les besoins de formation des cliniciens qui supervisent les résidents dans les cliniques d’enseignement de médecine familiale au Québec. Nous avons utilisé une méthodologie mixte comprenant: un balayage environnemental des programmes de formation des Départements de médecine familiale, un consensus d’experts pour sélectionn...

Studies have suggested that having students observe peers while acquiring physical-examination (PE) skills fosters the acquisition of the psychomotor skills required to conduct a PE. One difficulty, however, has been to disentangle the effect of peer observation from peer feedback, both of which occur when students learn in groups. This study inves...

Background: Learning and mastering the skills required to execute physical exams is of great importance and should be fostered early during medical training. Observing peers has been shown to positively influence the acquisition of psychomotor skills. Purpose: The current study investigated the influence of peer observation on the acquisition of...

Background Learning physical examination skills is an essential element of medical education. Teaching strategies include practicing the skills either alone or in-group. It is unclear whether students benefit more from training these skills individually or in a group, as the latter allows them to observing their peers. The present study, conducted...

Contexte : La littérature médicale sur la supervision directe a davantage exploré les contenus abordés en supervision que les stratégies utilisées par les superviseurs pour atteindre les objectifs pédagogiques. St-Arnaud a proposé un modèle intégré de stratégies pour développer la coopération en relation d’aide. Objectif : Cet article vise à tester...

We planned a series of 12 seminars to teach these skills to first-year residents. OBJECTIVES OF PROGRAM: To ask relevant questions typical of the patient-centred approach; with empathy and re...

Research is just one part of an academic physician's activities, which also include teaching, patient care, and administration. Research productivity, however, is still expected for academic advancement and to enhance family medicine as an academic discipline. The five units of Laval University's Department of Family Medicine were surveyed to deter...
