At the BCRP, education is a priority. From formal presentation at grand rounds by world-renowned specialists, to impromptu overnight clinical instruction, teaching and learning permeate all aspects of residents' daily life. Both institutions have daily protected teaching rounds and noon conferences that encourage discussion and debate between residents and faculty. Through Family Centered Work Rounds, residents benefit by learning from senior faculty, fellow residents, and their patients at the beside. Resident feedback is a driving force behind changes in the curriculum, which is always evolving to meet the educational needs of the residents.
Residents are also given the opportunity to learn to teach right from the start, honing and refining these skills throughout their three years. Our Boston University and Harvard medical students consistently identify residents as one of the most important sources of instruction. As part of our commitment to case-based teaching, residents supervise medical student patient encounters all the way from the initial history through the presentation on rounds.
