Some thoughts on @Tobin_MedEd @UniMelbMDHS DME talk on EPAs
My time in Echuca having to write up other ppls (the previous term's interns) discharge summaries, whilst a crap experience, did teach me to navigate the medical record and find information very quickly.
Supervision in undergraduate medicine... was very thin on the ground when I went to medical school. We used to watch each other take histories and examine, possibly more for emotional support than peer feedback. Very rarely did anyone watch us take this vital clinical skill.
Isn't prescribing more than just knowledge? You might know not to prescribe opioids or antibiotics, but it is a skill to be able to say no or to do it appropriately.
Curriculums and EPAs. Look at psychiatry.
Someone raised an argument against EPAs in PG training - that people will leave their jobs when entrustable.
Idea: have a professionalism EPA, and when they break their contract, they potentially fail the EPA?🤣
