Evaluation of a tool to improve the quality of preceptor written feedback for family medicine residents: training and use of a CanMEDS-MF competency-based criterion guide.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Written feedback is essential in resident teaching, but preceptors are not always well equipped to provide relevant feedback. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of multi-episodic training and the use of a criterion-referenced guide for written feedback for family medicine preceptors in a French-language academic hospital.

Method

Twenty-three (23) preceptors participated in the training and used the criterion-referenced guide to guide them during the written evaluation in an evaluation sheet named "Field Notes." The content of these Field Notes was analyzed according to completion, the rate of specific feedback, and the rate of feedback by CanMEDS-MF role before and after the training over a three-month period.
