摘要：Purpose: The Stanford Hospitalist Advanced Practice and Education (SHAPE) Program was established in 2015 as a hospital medicine training track within an academic internal medicine residency program. It is unique because it was created and is currently run by residents with a goal of better preparing residents for careers in hospital medicine. The SHAPE curriculum is based on three principles: (1) clinical excellence in hospitalist-relevant clinical areas, (2) academic development through research and quality improvement, and (3) career mentorship. We provide a two-year follow-up since the establishment of SHAPE and resident attitudes toward the program’s effectiveness.Methods: We assessed resident attitudes toward the SHAPE Program and subjective readiness to begin practice via electronic survey from 2015 to 2017.Results: 154 out of 324 (47.5%) total internal medicine residents responded to the surveys. Of those, 17 out of 21 (81.0%) were members of SHAPE. Compared to non-hospitalist-bound residents, SHAPE residents reported improved readiness for independent practice (OR 3.39 [95% CI: 1.1-10.9]) and providing care within the specific domain of palliative care.Conclusions: Here we describe the challenges of maintaining a hospitalist curriculum and the successes that have come from the first resident-run hospitalist training program in the country.
