Job Summary

The Charles R. Drew University College of Medicine provides training, in association and cooperation with its affiliated participating institutions, in graduate medical education (GME) programs that meet the standards established by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and its Residency Review Committees. Completion of the training qualifies the participant for certification by a specialty board recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS).

Essential Duties And Responsibilities

The Fellow will:

Participate in the clinical evaluation and care of patients in a variety of patient care settings with sufficient frequency to achieve the competencies required by their discipline under the supervision of the attending staff. Fellows may write orders and progress notes in patient charts, although attending physicians retain responsibility for the care of patients seen by fellows and must review the care of their patients. Perform procedures, which are specified by each program director, under the direct supervision of the attending physician. Fellows may only perform those procedures for which the attending physician has privileges. Once the fellow has performed the appropriate number of procedures competently, the program director will provide notification that the fellow is eligible to be certified to perform the procedure without direct supervision. Assume progressive responsibility for patient care activities according to fellow's level of education, ability, and experience. The program director and the attending staff will determine the fellow's level of responsibility and autonomy. Communicate effectively with their supervising attending regarding the findings of their evaluation, physical examination, interpretation of diagnostic tests, and intended interventions continuously. Participate fully in the educational and scholarly activities of the program and, as required, assume responsibility for teaching and supervising other fellows and students. Participate in appropriate institutional committees and councils whose actions affect their education and/or patient care including, but not limited to quality assurance and quality improvement activities. Develop a personal program of learning to foster continued professional growth with guidance from the teaching staff. Abide by all University policies and procedures, including the provisions of the GME Fellow Policy and Procedure Manual, the residency training programs, and the regulations of any affiliated institution to which the fellows may be assigned.

Graded Responsibilities

The fellow physician is both a learner and a provider of medical care. The fellow physician is involved in caring for patients under the supervision of more experienced physicians. As their training progresses, fellow physicians are expected to gain competence and require less supervision, progressing from on-site and contemporaneous supervision to more indirect and periodic supervision. Fellow physicians are given progressive responsibility for the care of the patient. The determination of a fellow physician's ability to provide care to patients without a supervisor present or act in a teaching capacity is based on formative evaluations and summative evaluations of the fellow physician's clinical experience, judgment, knowledge, and technical skill. These evaluations follow institutional guidelines and align fellow physician learning about the general competencies of medical knowledge, patient care, practice-based learning, interpersonal and effective communication, professionalism, and systems-based practice. Ultimately, it is the decision of the staff practitioner with direct responsibility of the fellow as to which activities the fellow will be allowed to perform within the context of the assigned levels of responsibility. The overriding consideration must be the safe and effective care of the patient is the responsibility of the staff practitioner. Both formal examinations and performance ratings by the faculty are utilized, and the fellow physician is personally apprised of his or her strengths and weaknesses at appropriate intervals at least twice annually. Completion by the program director of an annual summative review is an important part of this evaluation process. The Residency Program Director has the responsibility to determine and to document in writing, that the fellow physician possesses the skills necessary to practice at the level commensurate with their training.
