Will be #livetweeting about what we’re learning in the Education Leadership Summit at #NCS2022!
Up first! @namorrismd providing tangible tips on promotion as a #clinicianeducator
Hint: it’s more than just loving teaching ⬇️ (although obvi that matters!)
Think about your purpose and also get #training that helps you leverage your skills!
(Loving the office memes)
Meet your people that also love educational scholarship:
Be a great clinician!!
✅Build protocols
✅author guidelines
✅lead innovative initiatives!
Next up, Dr David Greer, legendary teacher and department chair.
Defining #value:
👉faculty=department
👉be part of the solution
👉see the chair and admin as servant leadership
Love the place and be invested in it!
As educator:
👍gotta know your stuff
👍understand the style of your learners
👍time has to be QUALITY
👍be good at bedside education!
Know you’re #phenotype
Embrace #ncc as a great field for teaching! Coma exams? Awesome teaching experience!!! #leanin
And understand your business plan!
But recognize that there are #checks and #balances for ⏰ and 💸. RVUs are part of the departments plan. Know your role.
Have the #3P: positivity, perseverance, and patience!
Be a part of the Team!!! We must provide high ⭐️quality clinical care⭐️
🏅innovate, create, but also be practical
Communication is 🔑🔑🔑🔑
Next up we have @NeuroPharmD helping us to assess The DEI landscape!
It all starts with recruitment! BUT!! You must have a focus on the culture which is helps to have impact and retention and making sure everyone thrives!
Think about how your composition of faculty, residents, etc matches the population you are serving. And remember that all trainees and faculty (all of us!) may be more than one ‘thing’
👉 continue to constantly Eval how people are staying and growing!
👉🔑inclusive leaders!
Diversify training — “most expensive and least effect diversity training program around.”
Why are they failing thoughts:
❓one and done?
❓activating bias
❓complacency
❓hide that there is a problem because ‘we did diversify training!’ ?
Next @MarinDarsieMD with some practical tips about how to be inclusive during the recruitment for residents, faculty and fellows!
👉a great resource
We all high biases and we are notoriously bad at recognizing our own.
👉 it’s easiest to go with what you know the most. It is tempting to do use cutoffs…. But this accumulates advantages and disadvantages
👉 we’re doing the ‘right’ things! … but what if not equitable?
From @DrQuinnCapers4 work:
Theory 👍, but doing is where the rubber meets the road! @ApnGreen about how to be a leader in ‘doing’.
SEED project- leadership training for everyone in the hospital- encouraging campus leadership at all levels!
Great tips about how DEI involves really listening, debriefing and participating. The importance of the de-identification of applications! The importance of openness and not based on easy metrics!
Next: #jennaford speaking about the value of making simulation #simple!! Having a great sim means having:
>objectives
>flexible
>realistic
>confidential
>simple!!!
Realistic doesn’t need to be complicated!!
🏅imagine the MAJOR branch points, not everything else a training may or may not do! Have embedded people that can give a little bit of a hint and stay on course!
Virtual learning… it’s a challenge right? @pouyeah sharing tangible tips teaching in the virtual environment!
> polls
> Google docs
And the awesome tips from @JenniferSpicer4! (A MUST!)
But the biggest benefit is that it's inclusive, accessible and connecting.
Through Zoom, the #medigator shadowing program was able to highlight diverse voices and help build the #pipeline. Through enabling thousands of students to shadow 40 providers in the health professions!!
Virtual shadowing can also help accelerate our understanding and uptake of "virtual" care: eICU and Telehealth and this is the #future in medicine!
- Using zoom to hone "webside" manner and tips
Virtual learning is an opportunity!!
Moving into how #apps and #fellows can be the #dreamteam for learning!
👍We are all learning together!
👉We can benefit from each other’s shared experience and be mutually beneficial.
Thanks #cecilaratay!
What about interdisciplinary simulation?? #justindelic, first what exactly is #interprofessionaleducation?
Each of these scenarios are ripe for IPE as we are collaborating IRL!
Codes? Acute stroke? Status? We manage all of these TOGETHER. It makes sense to practice together!!
Pro tips:
🏅have institutional support!
🤩 have a champion from each discipline!!
👬team STEPPs:
How do we learn from each other? @shwetagoswamimd
‘When we train we often train separately. But when we practice, we practice together’
This needs to be a longitudinal conversation!
From drug-drug interaction, to bedside tips our shared knowledge exceeds our own!
