Module V
    Patient care
          Resources




Introduction
      
There is considerable evidence showing the impact of the ‘informal curriculum’ on the development of learners. This means that the actions of faculty are crucial in promoting and modeling the desired learner behaviors.

Resources included in the module focus on a number of areas related to patient care. Some of these materials are interactive. Some are readings that may be used to trigger discussion. Yet others are tools that fellows can use to facilitate active participation in patient care.

Training programs will want to document group use of resources and individual fellows will want to document their use of specific resources.

Resources contained in this module relate to four main domains of patient care: caring and respectful behavior, communication and patient education skills, providing effective and appropriate care, and prevention.
