Introduction to the Current State of Global Health
Trainee Interest Graduating medical students in the US & Canada who participated in a global health experience: 6% 43% Source: AAMC 1985 2009 58% of pediatric residents report that GH training was important for selection of training program 30% have plans for positions abroad after residency Garfunkel Acad Peds 2011
As Global Health Programs Increase to Meet Resident Demand, Common Challenges Emerge
Challenges for Residency Programs Developing a Competency based Global Health Curriculum Identifying Mentorship Institutional Support Developing and Maintaining Sustainable Global Partnerships Overseeing global training opportunities Resident safety and well-being Ethical and responsible engagement of colleagues around the world Adequate supervision to ensure patient safety on global health electives Avoid legal issues and additional risks for the resident s institution Cost, funding and time
The next challenges: INDIVIDUALIZED Curriculum All in the same residency box but now new flavors of learning
Doing this Responsibly & Ethically
Small Group Discussion Discussion Question: What careers have previous globally interested trainees from your institution have gone into after graduation?
Career Options: Move to another country to work for a prolonged placement Intermittent short-term work Academic work with GH emphasis Global research career (clinical, bench, public health, etc) Public health career path Work for NGO/consulting Subspecialty fellowship (non-gh ie endocrine, pulmonary, etc) Relief work (locally or internationally) Public Policy Immigrant or Refugee care within the US Indian Health Services Global Health Fellowship
