Behind the Scenes; Workshopping an MD Learner Mistreatment Workshop

Medical student mistreatment is an international issue spanning clinical training programs. To reduce mistreatment, institutional/curricular interventions are implemented and evaluated, but development processes remain nebulous. We describe our development process of an evidence-based educational learner mistreatment intervention for an undergraduate MD curriculum that considers contextual needs. This process spans literature review, learning objective identification, content curation, and delivery.

A working group of student and faculty members implemented a three-phased process to develop a Mistreatment Workshop and evaluation plan. First, a student-led working group conducted a scoping review of the literature to identify best practice in content, assessment, and evaluation of curricular interventions that address learner mistreatment across health professions programs. Second, data gathered by the MD program to understand the extent and nature of learner mistreatment were reviewed. Finally, workshop content and learning objectives were iteratively refined through stakeholder (faculty members, learners, workshop facilitators, MD program curriculum committee) consultation.

Several interventions exist to address learner mistreatment in medical education; however, the process and reasons underpinning intervention development and evaluation are infrequently described. Using the development of the MD Learner Mistreatment Workshop as a case example, we demonstrate how to curate workshop objectives that are grounded in reported literature, local institutional data, and meaningful involvement of learner and faculty stakeholders. This process could be adapted to other settings to address mistreatment education.
