  3. Plan of Action • Explain the reason for applying for the grant • Define design of project • Clarify the steps involved to accomplish goals of the grant • Discuss results of project • Identify future strategies

  4. Purpose-Why Applied • Ignatian Values are complex but include constructs such as: • Caring for the whole patient • Special Consideration for those most in need • Continually striving to do more and to do better • Concern for justice

  5. Purpose (con’t) • Although a mission of Jesuit medical schools is to incorporate these values into continuing medical education, systematic tools specifically addressing these concepts are lacking

  6. Purpose (con’t) • We are actively assessing the utility of a structured intervention on the inclusion of Ignatian values into continuing medical education.

  7. Design of Project-Method • This was a Pre/post-intervention study • The intervention consisted of written materials and a video which are reviewed during the planning process. • These tools were incorporated into routine use for programs scheduled to begin after January 1, 2010

  8. Steps Involved • Identified a Committee • Identified areas that needed updated to include information on Ignatian Values • Mission Statement-enhance information stated • Planning Meeting Agendas • Continuing Medical Education application • Information to presenters • Evaluations

  9. Committee Mark Malesker, Pharm D Lee Morrow, MD, MSc Sally C. O’Neill, PhD Jeff Klein, BSBA Not Pictured: Fr. James Clifton

  10. Mission Statement • Updated Mission Statement to include: • In order to advance the Ignatian mission of the University and its CME Division and to differentiate Creighton’s continuing medical education offerings, CME will work to assist all involved in planning and presenting CME programs to identify and include explicitly Ignatian themes and values in their programs, where appropriate.

  11. Planning Meeting Agendas • Initial Planning Meeting: • Creighton University in Community – How to incorporate Ignatian Values into the program • Post-Conference Meeting: • How did we incorporate the IgnatianValues into the program? Did they apply to this program? Did they make a difference and if so, what were the differences?

  12. Continuing Medical Education Application • How were Ignatian Values integrated into this activity? • Patient cases • Therapeutic discussion • Content to include Ignatian Values • Updated presentation to include • Included as an objective • Initial contact to faculty • Patient education • Included Web link in conference materials • Other_________________

  13. Information to Presenters • Presenter letters have been changed to encourage inclusion of IgnatianValues in their presentations. • A summary sheet is included in the letter • A video recording of Fr. Clifton and committee members discussing IgnatianValues and how they can be integrated into Continuing Medical Education is on the Division’s website and the link is provided to presenters.

  14. Evaluation • A variety of evaluations are used: • Faculty/presenters • Planning committee • Course Directors • Attendees • Online immediately following the program • Post-conference questionnaire 4-6 weeks following program

  15. Faculty/Presenter/Moderator/Panel Member Evaluation

  16. Planning Committee

  17. Course Directors (Same as Planning Committee)

  18. Attendees-Immediate

  19. Results of Intervention • Only 12.2% of Continuing Medical Education content during calendar year 2009 contained content relevant to Ignatian values. • Public health and psychiatry conferences were most likely to include these concepts.

  20. Results (con’t) • Preliminary data from calendar year 2010 shows that 32.6% of planned Continuing Medical Education content intends to incorporate Ignatian values. • A significant shift to include such material was seen within several specialties: pediatrics, critical care, and surgery.

  21. Conclusions An educational intervention, coupled with simple process changes, can effectively altar continuing medical education program planning to incorporate core values reflective of an institution’s statement

  22. Future Strategies • Information will continue be used to improve: • Conference content • Conference design • Patient care for all health sciences focusing on Ignatian values • A permanent component of evaluation process
