Abstract: | The goal of medical residency is to provide the best clinical education for future practice, while increasing quality and safety in current and future healthcare. This goal is not being met. Traditional residency programs often continue to utilize individually oriented, shame-and-blame approaches that do not recognize the systems nature of outcomes, care, and patient safety. Appropriate substantive methods, content, and training tools are also lacking, while residents continue to labor in a poor working environment. All these factors create a system that serves no one-not the resident, the patient, or the system in which both interact. Residency reforms are proposed to address these imperative concerns. |
