Developing Individualized Educational Experiences in Hospitalist and Ambulatory Medicine

The 2023 ACGME Program Requirements for GME in internal medicine formalized requirements for residency programs to include six-months of career focused, individualized educational experiences. Hospital medicine and outpatient internal medicine are specifically identified as opportunities for experiences that should be available to residents. Following graduation, residents can find that there are subtle but considerable differences in practice priorities and skill sets required for life as a private practice or academic attending, when compared to life as a resident. In this interactive workshop, we will provide a tested framework for development and implementation of career experience rotations to fulfill the individualized educational experience requirements. We will evaluate models for hospital medicine and outpatient internal medicine rotations designed specifically as career experiences at our own institution, including specific elements designed to enhance resident's post graduation practice. Using breakout sessions we will facilitate participants in identifying opportunities at their own institutions that could be utilized for career specific experiences. We will lead participants through the process of building a rotation, including identification of stakeholders, curriculum development, implementation, and evaluation.
