Planning a Continuing Health Care Professional Education Institute: Recommendations from the Institute of Medicine
Planning a Continuing Health Care Professional Education Institute
Recommendations from the Institute of Medicine
A report from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) on recommendations for the development of a national inter-professional institute devoted to the continuing education of healthcare professionals is due to be released shortly as a result from the recommendations from the 2008 Macy Foundation report on "Continuing Education in the Health Professions: Improving Healthcare through Lifelong Learning."
The purpose of establishing such an institute is to advance the science of CE by promoting the discovery and dissemination of more effective methods of educating health professionals over their professional lifetimes, by developing a research enterprise that encourages increased scientific study of CE, by developing mechanisms to assess research applications, by stimulating new approaches to both intra- and inter-professional CE, and by being independent and composed of individuals from the various health professions.
Hear directly from IOM committee members, Gail Warden, MHA., FACHE (chair) and Michael W. Painter, JD, MD, on this report, with reactions from Jann Balmer, PhD, RN, Director CME, University of Virginia School of Medicine, Lois Colburn, Executive Director, Center for Continuing Education, University of Nebraska Medical Center, and Gabrielle M Kane, MB, EdD, FRCPC, Associate Professor Department of Radiation Oncology, Associate Professor Department of Medical Education and Biomedical Informatics, University of Washington.
