β¦ Synopsis
Hospitalist as teacher refers to specific interactions with members of the multidisciplinary care team to educate them about inpatient care plans, hospital protocols, patient safety, and evidence based clinical problem solving. As educators, hospitalists provide leadership in patient care, teach at multiple levels, and facilitate team building. Hospitalists serve as role models and teach the process of clinical decision making as a tool for future physician-patient encounters. Hospitalists may review, modify, and promote new protocols and guidelines to implement across multiple services in the hospital. The hospitalist as teacher is a core competency essential to the process of effecting organizational change.
