Program foundations and beginning of concerns (part 1 of 3). When residents shouldn’t become clinicians: getting a grip on fair and defensible processes for termination of training
Training programs have the dual responsibility of providing excellent training for their learners and ensuring their graduates are competent practitioners. Despite everyone’s best efforts a small minority of learners will be unable to achieve competence and cannot graduate. Unfortunately, program d...
