Goldilocks and Entrustment: Finding the Amount of Learner Autonomy That's Just Right.


ABSTRACT: Introduction:Faculty and residents strive for appropriate autonomy and entrustment. Initial direct supervision of clinical care gradually shifts to increasing levels of resident independence over time. Faculty members are inconsistent in resident supervision leading to missed opportunities for resident independence. Methods:Family medicine faculty workshop participants completed teaching style self-evaluations prior to discussion of clinical examples with excessive or insufficient autonomy. Participants reviewed real resident feedback examples to increase insight into teaching styles. Participants were presented with cases to discuss varying degrees of resident autonomy and entrustment. Learners committed to one specific behavior to calibrate the degree of autonomy they provide. Results:Of the faculty, 113 members participated in the workshop with the majority (98%) finding the workshop relevant in helping them to identify strategies for reflecting on their degree of autonomy allowed and to look for appropriate situations for enhancing their resident entrustment. Discussion:This interactive workshop provided clear ways for addressing the issue of independence versus control in supervision of patient care. It provided a feedback mechanism for educators who provide too much or too little autonomy for the best resident learning. Additionally, this conversation encouraged participants to engage in self-reflection on the autonomy given to their resident.
