Abstract
Objectives: To describe the dimensions of family centered bedside ward rounds and to develop recommendations for effective teaching and learning in this environment. Methods: Data were collected from focus group meetings of pediatric residents and pediatricians at the University of Calgary. Data analyses were performed according to grounded theory methodology. Hypotheses are generated about the factors influencing successful teaching and learning on rounds. Results: Dimensions that impact the rounds experience are the environment, the education and the competing priorities. Strategies for success include planning the teaching and learning experience, collaborating with families and handling the logistics. The experience of rounds is a spectrum from successful and highly educational to unsuccessful and of low educational value. The "Effectiveness of the Manager' is the core variable. Conclusions: The CanMEDS Manager Role is central to the overall experience of rounds. Implications for faculty development and resident education and evaluation are discussed.
