This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Medical Society of the State of New York (MSSNY) through the joint sponsorship of MSSNY and New York Academy of Medicine Section on EBM. MSSNY is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
The Medical Society of the State of New York designates this educational activity for a maximum of 25.0 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
THE TEACH DESIGN
Educational efforts in evidence-based practice can only achieve their stated goals if they lead to changes in practitioner behavior and, ultimately, to improved patient outcomes. The novel 3-track framework of the TEACH program embraces Knowledge Translation (KT) and Evidence-Based Individualized Care (EBIC). In so doing, it provides clinicians with the arms and legs required to transform their acquisition of EBIC skills into demonstrable improvements in care. Workshop participants learn how KT and EBIC skills can complement each other and how to develop educational and practice initiatives within their home centers based upon this principle. Through exposure to the GRADE track, they also acquire critical literacy in relation to clinical policies and guidelines.
TEACH seeks enrollment on the part of hospitals, hospital services and training programs and other entities that provide health care services to patients. It provides enrollees with discounts on tuition together with on-going educational support and other facilitation for up to a 3 year period.
The annual workshops are led by experienced faculty, including internationally renowned authorities in the three track areas. These experts work as mentors and facilitators with participants in each of the three tracks (KT, EBIC and GRADE). Participants are able to acquire and improve relevant skills while actively planning programs for implementation in their individual practice settings under expert tutelage.
FRONTIER INNOVATIONS
Within the three tracks, the TEACH conference and workshops draw on innovations in conception and design that have emerged from over a decade of education research and development within the New York Academy Section on Evidence Based Health Care. These include the integration of concepts and teaching tools borrowed from narrative medicine with evidence-based individualized care and a comprehensive ‘blueprint’ of information skills that addresses the full spectrum of clinical research relevant to practice.
Online learning and preparatory support tools are available to participants in all three tracks prior to and during the workshop. Participants from enrolled care centers retain ongoing access to the interactive website, and to applications that facilitate the development of on-site care and training initiatives. Integration and interaction between the 3 tracks of the TEACH conference is enhanced via plenary sessions, small group learning, track specific seminars and other special sessions.
