| Popis: | Abstract Introduction Family-centered rounds (FCR) are a common method for daily communication between families and providers in pediatric hospitals. Traditionally, medical education teaches students fundamental oral presentation skills. However, students frequently struggle with synthesizing pertinent information for communication to patients and families, especially without the use of medical jargon. To address this deficit, we created a workshop for third-year medical students on their pediatric clerkship to provide expectations for FCR presentations and allow for directed practice with immediate feedback. Methods This 1-hour workshop begins with a preworkshop survey and PowerPoint introductory presentation on FCR. Participants then watch videos of both good and bad history and physical (H&P) performances and discuss the differences. The workshop ends with 30 minutes for small-group H&P practice. Results This workshop has increased medical students' perceived comfort with oral presentations on family-centered rounds, as well as their ability to identify and synthesize pertinent information. Discussion The workshop has created a solid foundation for the introduction of medical students to family-centered rounds presentations; however, further development of educational and feedback tools would continue to enhance this learning experience. The creation and maintenance of the workshop relied heavily upon senior resident involvement to serve as small-group facilitators. |
