Inhaltsangabe

The continuing professional development (CPD) of physicians, formerly called continuing medical education, greatly expands what physicians can do with the help of educational experts to provide optimal patient care. The Continuing Professional Development of Physicians: From Research to Practice takes the concept of CPD, which has been adopted by the American Medical Association, and turns it from theory into practice as an agent for positive physician performance change. In 16 chapters edited and organized into three major sections, more than two dozen noted contributors from throughout the medical education field consider how forces driving the evolution of the physician workforce are affecting the approach to lifelong learning. The importance of physicians reflecting on their clinical experience to direct their learning is emphasized, and specific examples of ways to help the self-directed learner can be found throughout. The Continuing Professional Development of Physicians embraces a broad view of lifelong learning for physicians. All who are dedicated to assisting physicians in that learning and improving health care will find the book to be forward-looking, comprehensive, thought-provoking and informative.
