Eight-one(70%)of the 116 questionnaires distributed were returned.There were four areas of general consensus among the program directors:(1)more time should be devoted to outpatient care during residency training;(2) more continuity at the resident level should be provided for patients seen in subspecialty clinics;(3)faculty should provide more supervision of residents when they see follow-up patients;and(4)conferences specifically directed at outpatient management issues should be developed.Neurology residency directors agree that current approaches to teaching in the outpatient setting fall short of an educationally ideal system.Creative solutions will be necessary to correct these perceived deficiencies. |
