PGME ACCREDITATION Moved to Feb. 23-28, 2014
Canadian Association of Internes & Residents (CAIR) website:Facts about the Accreditation Process
“Accreditation is singly the most important process that residents can be involved in.”
“The single most critical "zero-tolerance" issue in Accreditation is intimidation and harassment.”
CAIR Mantras Intimidation/Harassment
(Canadian Association of Interns & Residents)Intimidation / harassment include, but not
limited to:
Derogatory written or verbal communication or gestures re: race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, marital status, family status, disability, or sexual orientation.
Unwelcome physical contact
Physical or sexual assault
CAIR Mantras Intimidation/Harassment cont.
Intimidation / harassment include, but not limited to:
Abuse of authority that undermines a resident’s performance or threatens a resident’s career
Patronizing or condescending behaviour intended to humiliate a resident’s performance (distinctly different from timely, constructive feedback from preceptors).
Any coercion in the accreditation process
FOR ROYAL COLLEGE HARASSMENT VERY SERIOUS
e.g. “Harassment imperils N.L. anesthesia training”
February 2011 - Residency program in Anesthesiology at Memorial
University received Notice of Intent to Withdraw Accreditation due to
“Ongoing allegations of intimidation which remain unresolved by
the program, faculty or university processes (B3.8)”
“Harassment imperils N.L. anesthesia training”
RE: Notice of Intent to Withdraw Accreditation: Major and/or continuing weaknesses are identified which
bring into question the ongoing program accreditation
Residents in the program, those already contracted to enter the program, and applicants to the program, must be advised immediately by the program director of the status of the program.
Within 2 years of Notice, an external review is conducted - the program must show cause why accreditation should not be withdrawn.
Jan. 2011/July 2012 GENERAL STANDARDS APPLICABLE TO ALL PROGRAMS
STND B3: STRUCTURE AND ORGANIZATION OF THE PROGRAM
9. “Teaching and learning must take place in environments which promote resident safety and freedom from intimidation, harassment and abuse.”
RCPSC Position Paper: “Accreditation And The Issue Of Intimidation And Harassment In PGME: Guidelines For Surveyors & Programs”
Definition of Harassment:
. . . Repeated, often public, critical remarks or ridicule. Singling out for grilling or interrogation. Unjustified negative remarks or inappropriately positive remarks about appearance or dress. Unjust assignment of duties.
Definition of Intimidation: . . . the use of authority to influence someone to do/refrain from an action or to do something they would not do or should not do otherwise.
e.g. asked to do extra work; refraining from reporting patient events; falsely positive faculty evaluations.
It can also include ‘flattering’ intimidation such as “you are different than the others so I wonder if you can..”; “you’re great, you never complain and I wonder if you could take on this task for me…”
RCPSC: “Accreditation And Intimidation Guidelines . . .
PRINCIPLES:
1. Timely identification of a concern about intimidation and harassment should be the goal of all programs.
2. Trainees should be encouraged to inform their program director or university administration of problems.
3. The initial discussion must occur in a confidential setting.
RCPSC: “Accreditation And Intimidation Guidelines . . .
PRINCIPLES:
4. There should be a process to clarify the facts concerning the allegation.
5. The process of clarification must occur in an atmosphere free of retribution.
6. There should be a process to address and resolve allegations in a timely manner.
UGME STNDS- The Learning Environment
MS-31: there should be no discrimination on the basis of age, creed, gender identity, national origin, race, sex, or sexual orientation in any of the program’s activities.
MS-31A Annotation: . . . the school … should regularly assess the learning environment to identify positive and negative influences on the maintenance of professional standards and conduct, and develop appropriate strategies to enhance positive/mitigate negative influences.
MS-32 Annotation: Mechanisms for reporting violations -- such as incidents of harassment or abuse -- should assure that they can be registered and investigated without fear of retaliation.
