Utilizing a Team-Based Approach to Early Intervention and Remediation of the Under Performing Resident

As Educators in Family Medicine we are often tasked with remediating under performing residents. This can occur through informal and formal remediation processes. Often times identifying residents in need of formal remediation is an arduous task riddled with systematic and procedural complexities often leading to a delay in starting the process. In this session, we will explore a team-based approach to remediation utilizing physician faculty, behavioral health faculty, and the program coordinator which allows for a systematic procedure to carry out the process while also allowing for the needed customization for the individual resident.

Learning Objectives
1. Define informal and formal remediation in graduate medical education.
2. Develop a team of physicians and administrative personnel equipped to create and administer remediation.
3. Create a remediation plan for under performing residents based on ACGME Milestones.
