Congratulations to Charo Rodriguez who, as a member of a research team led by Dr. Annick Giguere (Laval University), has published the article entitled ‘Family Medicine Supervisors’ Preferences for Improving Their Teaching Skills in Senior Care’ in the April 2021 issue of the journal Family Medicine.
The findings of this project will allow those who design CPD activities to adapt such activities to the preferences of supervisors, so as to improve their clinical and teaching skills in senior care. This, in turn, may help supervisors to embody an appealing professional role model for learners.
This study provides some insights into the preferred learning strategies of clinical supervisors in family medicine to improve their skills and teaching abilities to care for
seniors. We found that supervisors preferred that training be offered by trainers with extensive field experience, and knowledgeable about local community resources
