All General Pediatrics fellows are expected to assume on-call duties. The types of calls and their frequency will depend on the fellowship stream and may be individualized by the fellowship director, taking into account the fellow's previous experience, their personal training objectives, and their future career scope.

A maximum of 2 in-house calls per block on the General Pediatrics inpatient unit may be required.

Clinical Component

The clinical experiences are geared towards broad exposure to children with complex care needs and the health care infrastructure that supports or is required to support the needs of this growing subsegment of the pediatric population. Exposures will be concentrated in the Complex Care Service (previously known as the Intensive Ambulatory Care Service/Homecare) and include听inpatient, outpatient, home-based and community-based care.

Fellows will develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to provide high quality collaborative care. Specifically, the infrastructure of multidisciplinary teams, care coordination and communication will be emphasized. Children with complex care needs include vulnerable and fragile populations such as post-solid-organ transplant recipients, technology dependent children, those with progressive neuromuscular conditions and those at high risk of frequent and recurrent hospitalization. Clinical training is expected to comprise approximately 10 of the 12 months of advanced pediatrics training, with the remaining two months allocated to the completion of a scholarly project such as a small-scale research project or a quality improvement project.

Specific training activities include:

• Complex Care Service rotations (10-11 blocks):

1. Longitudinal exposure to children with complex conditions, focused in the Complex Care Service, formerly known as the Intensive Ambulatory Care Service
2. Complex care consultations
3. Participation in multidisciplinary clinics and weekly Complex Care teaching rounds
4. Home and community (CLSC, Rehab Centre) visits

• Scholarly project (2-3 blocks)
• Call duties: Complex care service (one week of 鈥渉ome call鈥� per block when on CCS service)
• Attendance at a national/international conference which focuses on the care needs of medically fragile/complex children.

Academic Component

Specific to this fellowship program is the expectation that trainees will develop, implement, and complete a scholarly project, suitable for presentation at a national/international conference on the care of children with complex medical needs. This project may take the form of a research project (chart review, retrospective case-control, or prospective survey, for example), a quality assurance or advocacy project.

In addition, all Complex Clinical Care Fellows will also be expected to join the Pediatric Health Research Epidemiology Statistics CurriculA (PHRESCA)

Mission and Vision

Mission
To advance the field of Social Pediatrics through the training of pediatricians who will act as champions of positive change for the health of socially vulnerable populations.

Vision
All graduates will have the medical expertise, advocacy, and academic skills to engage, collaborate and help empower socially vulnerable populations. These graduates will also possess skills in lobbying for health policy change, health promotion, and will contribute to the growth of knowledge concerning socially vulnerable children.

Background
The Department of Pediatrics has a long history of participating in the care of disadvantaged populations. There has been a core pediatrics rotation in Social Pediatrics for pediatric residents since 2002 and a Fellowship since 2008, the first in Canada. A number of pediatricians affiliated with the Department practice with socially disadvantaged populations, have links to community-based health organizations and are involved in community-based advocacy. There are long established programs in multiculturalism, indigenous health, and children under youth protection. More recently, several innovative school-based clinics in disadvantaged neighborhoods were established. Finally, there is a long tradition in Global Child Health within the department.

The evolution of pediatric practice has made the time ripe to develop the idea of a social medicine focus in the training of professionals in child health. Over the last 60 years, pediatrics has evolved from a specialty dealing with largely acute diseases to one with a significant population of children affected by the social determinants of health, chronic diseases and special needs. In the 21st century, pediatric practice continues to evolve, and research demonstrates that social factors have long lasting effects on the health of children, and later as adults.

Training Requirements

Medical Training

Having stated that an understanding of the social determinants of health and the effect of social context on health is integral to the training of all child health professionals, we recognize the need to enrich the community of pediatricians with individuals who possess the requisite knowledge, skills, and sensitivity to act as champions of positive change for the health of disadvantaged populations. Such a pediatrician must possess sound medical expertise in the specific health problems of socially vulnerable populations, the skills to appropriately engage and collaborate with communities, and the attitudes that have social justice as a core value. Clinical rotations are tailored to this training philosophy and are mostly community-based and longitudinal.

Clinical exposures generally run in a longitudinal fashion (e.g., one day/week over several months, mixed with other similar exposures), and take place in a variety of community clinics and organizations in and around Montreal. These clinics have in common that they are rooted in the communities that they serve and provide community-empowering models of care among socially vulnerable populations with clinical supervisors committed to advocacy within the specific populations. A list of organizations is in the Annex. Fellows also participate in longitudinal electives in specific clinical areas (tailored to their needs and future careers) in selected specialty and general pediatrics clinics at the Montreal Children鈥檚 Hospital. Fellows undertake meaningful teaching duties within the Division of General Pediatrics at the Montreal Children鈥檚 Hospital. Ultimately, we seek to encourage the development of a diverse next generation of pediatricians, who are prepared to respond to the needs of socially vulnerable children.

Advanced Academic Skills

Experts in social pediatrics must not only gain complex medical expertise; they must also develop academic skills (including research and/or advocacy skills) in order to contribute to the improvement of the health of disadvantaged populations at the population health level. Fellows are allowed protected time to work on their academic pursuits.

Academic training for the advanced trainee in Social Pediatrics may make use of the many links that have been made with the leadership in other faculties at 缅北强奸, notably Social Work, Law, Anthropology, and Population and Global Health. The leadership in these faculties are open to the idea of pediatric trainees receiving training with them to develop the academic skills needed to function as positive agents of social change. Fellows are expected to undertake a major scholarly project in a domain pertinent to Social Pediatrics. Projects are assessed for suitability based upon relevance to the care of vulnerable pediatric and youth populations.

General Principles

• Many of the clinical exposures run longitudinally and are community-based, or within relevant hospital-based clinics. Elective blocks within subspecialty or general pediatric rotations are permitted.
• All fellows are expected to contribute to the medical education of more junior trainees.
• Fellows are encouraged to participate in the Canadian Child Health Clinician Scientist Program (CCHCSP). Fellows are required to participate in the 缅北强奸 Department of Pediatrics' CanMEDS Rounds.
• All fellows are expected to complete and present the results of a scholarly project. The topic (e.g., advocacy, policy promotion, research), scale and presentation will depend on the fellow鈥檚 training and career goals.
• On call duties: A maximum of 2 in-house calls per block on the General Pediatrics inpatient unit may be required. The types of calls and their frequency may be individualized by the fellowship director, taking into account the fellow's previous experience, their personal training objectives, and their future career scope.

Eligibility and Funding

Eligibility
Candidates for this fellowship are required to have completed a fourth year of General Pediatrics residency in a Canadian program and should be expecting completion of their FRCPC Pediatrics certification prior to entry. They must also meet the eligibility requirements of 缅北强奸.

Capacity in conversational French would be a strong asset due to the demographics of the Montreal Children鈥檚 Hospital鈥檚 (MCH) patient population (~40% French, ~30% English, ~30% Other languages). Candidates unfamiliar with the MCH may consider completing a clinical rotation at the institution in order to become familiar with its learning and clinical environment.

Please note that pediatric residents who have obtained their MD in Quebec and/or who did residency training in Quebec in a contingent r茅gulier or contingent particulier position are eligible to apply to this fellowship only via the 鈥渇ormation complementaire鈥� program.

Funding
Funding and tuition support for accepted candidates is available. Details can be found on the 缅北强奸 Department of Pediatrics website: https://mcgill.ca/peds/education-training/pgme/funding

Curriculum

The fellow will be exposed to the full range of tertiary hospital pediatrics, along with opportunities in community settings. The majority of the clinical rotations will take place at the Montreal Children鈥� Hospital. Elective clinical rotations may take place at 缅北强奸-affiliated centres such as the Royal Victoria Hospital/Glen (Newborn Nursery), Jewish General Hospital (Newborn Nursery), LaSalle Hospital (Newborn Nursery), and Cite de la Sante Hospital (Pediatric Unit).

During clinical rotations, the supervisory role of the fellow towards more junior trainees will vary depending on the nature of the rotation. However, it is expected that the fellow will be directly responsible for resident and medical student supervision in some capacity while on clinical rotations.

All General Pediatrics fellows are expected to assume on-call duties. The types of calls and their frequency will depend on the fellowship stream and may be individualized by the fellowship director, taking into account the fellow's previous experience, their personal training objectives, and their future career scope.

Assessment

In order to successfully complete the Pediatric Hospital Medicine Fellowship Program, the fellow must demonstrate:

• Satisfactory completion of all clinical rotations, including core and elective rotations
• Completion of a scholarly project
• Regular attendance and active participation at fellows鈥� protected teaching
• Regular attendance and active participation at CCHCSP
• Fulfilment of yearly call responsibilities
• Regular participation in department meetings (e.g. QUIPS rounds) and teaching activities (e.g. Evidence-based Rounds)

During each clinical rotation, fellows will receive regular feedback on their performance in order to guide their formative trajectory. Mid-way feedback, as well as final feedback at the end of the rotation, will be expected of supervising staff members.

Written evaluations will be provided for clinical and academic rotations using 缅北强奸鈥檚 online One45 evaluation platform. In the cases where the fellow will have worked with multiple supervising staff over the course of a rotation, the final evaluation will be reflective of cumulative input. The One 45 system will also permit the fellows to complete formal evaluations of their rotations and of the teaching faculty.

Regular meetings every three months with the Fellowship Program Director will allow fellows to remain cognizant of their performance. This will facilitate an open dialogue to enhance the learning experience while providing tailored feedback. Since the General Pediatrics Fellowship Committee supervises and coordinates the training of fellows in the various General Pediatrics Fellowship Programs, it will also review trainee progress and performance throughout the year as well as at the end of the fellowship.

Upon successful completion of the fellowship, candidates will receive a certificate of completion from 缅北强奸.
