Our profession is facing an epidemic crisis in burnout, professionalism, and suicide, and has some physicians feeling that they are unable to be courageous and advocate for a better way and system for their patients.
Learners entering medicine see the profession as a “way to improve the world”. However, medical education in its current state places a heavy emphasis on individual personal performance. The current approach does more to constrain a learner’s potential rather than to promote it, and reduces a student’s resilience, creativity, and empathy.
Medical education is misguided in using methods for developing technical competence (e.g., acquiring knowledge & skills and assessing outcomes) on aspects of education which are not technical in nature (e.g. professional identity, empathy, purpose, and leadership).
Current methods in medical education are inadequate . A whole new approach is needed.
