This policy represents the minimum standards regarding the evaluation
of trainees (interns, residents and fellows) who are enrolled in programs
that are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical
Education and sponsored by the BWH and MGH.
- The program director or his/her designee(s) is responsible for
collecting written evaluations regarding trainee performance from
relevant supervising attending physicians, and from other individuals
as deemed appropriate.
- In addition, there should be concurrent feedback to each trainee
from the supervising attending.
- The program director is responsible for ensuring that feedback/counseling
sessions are held at least annually with each trainee in order to
help analyze and synthesize the individual faculty evaluations of
the trainee, highlight trends, identify weaknesses or areas of insufficient
progress and design remedies, as appropriate. These sessions provide
an excellent opportunity to discuss career development and counseling.
- The program director is responsible for documenting that feedback/counseling
sessions with each trainee have taken place as described above.
This activity is considered to be "peer review" and as
such is confidential.
