Each year, physicians volunteer time away from their practice to help us examine candidates, write & review exam items, & help us with program improvements. We thank them for helping us advance the specialty. View our 2018 volunteers: https://t.co/jgQVIv74zE
Working on this project sitting a rock throw away from Pulse nightclub in Orlando. Feeling sad, angry, but mostly motivated #thisisourlane#stopthebleed
#mededchat T1 As long as student achieves the learning objectives/outcomes which are intended to achieve, can call a successful clerkship student. Of course learning objectives differ from one clerkship to another clerkship #meded

One of the best antidotes to isolation and despair is telling our stories (with people we trust, when we feel ready). Thanks @CPakTeng for sharing yours #mentalhealth#meded
It doesn’t matter if you can’t answer questions when pimped, it’s about your work ethic, how you contribute to the team, and how you treat patients. Knowledge comes with time, but try to preserve your empathy in clerkship #mededchat#meded
A1: I actually think that the secret to being a “successful” clerkship student is actually figuring out what that means during each rotation to your respective preceptors. Perceptions of what constitutes “success” vary. You must learn what’s expected & adapt! #mededchat#meded
@ChaunieBrusie can you tell us 1) how a doctor's "personal preference" is a legitimate consideration when cutting off a healthy & functional part of a child's penis & 2) how you could be so ignorant of the unethical nature of ANY nontherapeutic child genital cutting? #i2#meded
Just astonishing that this is on a medical website. The utter lack of ethical awareness is hard to fathom. “What Style of Labiaplasty Should I Get for My Infant Daughter?” vs “Loose Circumcision: What Type Is Best for My Son?” https://t.co/qPdRUo6FJv
Abilities for success:
1) critical thinking
2) emotional intelligence
3) fund of knowledge
4) relationship centeredness
5) growth mindset
We need to figure out how to assess these, and they will predict success in #meded and beyond. We tend to look at only #4

TOPIC 3: #Medstudents are interacting with patients earlier. What are your thoughts on establishing #milestones for H&P skills prior to starting clerkships? #mededchat#meded
T2: If the coursework performance was integrated and dependent longitudinally into the same systems and clerkship teams as the clinical learning environment then.......yes! #mededchat#MedEd
#Meded T3. Don’t know about milestones, but incorporating longitudinal clinical skills with planned real patient interactions into preclerkship curriculum has been well-received by students and faculty at the 2 medical schools I’ve been involved with
T3: Milestones provide aspirational behavioral benchmarks for learners so that even within these early encounters, synthesis of skills into outcomes can be recognized, practiced, attained, and assessed! #EPAfan#mededchat#medstudent#MedEd
For Felix Morales, MD, what began as a passion to help others as a medical student in 1999, led to a life serving West Texas. https://t.co/ZcykFraIhn#TTUHSCfifty
T3 #mededchat yes. It is good to have milestones for H&P prior to start clerkships which prepares the students to enter clerkships. We do this with the help of Standardized patient program and other means of simulation. We assess the srudents using SP-based assessments. #meded
Great additional info for those working on their @acgme#BackToBedside apps. Three weeks left to apply! Be part of grass roots change in #MedEd#Wellbeing
Check out the #BackToBedside webpage - newly posted today two webcasts for those planning to apply on (1) the faculty mentor role by me and (2) inexpensive evaluation tools and tips by Dr Stuart Slavin.

Clerkship readiness can hopefully begin on day 1 of the learner's #MedEd journey with concrete expectations + behavioral milestones outlined so that observed individual and team environs can be organized and synthesized into future entrustment for care and supervision #mededchat
That's a wrap...I will post the #mededchat transcript tomorrow morning on https://t.co/mJivoK9NyX on the Resources page. Thanks everyone for participating! #meded
