Page 5: Using an Internal GME House Staff Survey as An Early ......Introduction of the Stanford Housestaff Survey –Analysis & Reporting Responses are aggregated by programs for reporting

Background: Stanford Housestaff Survey – Historical Perspective

An institutional-wide internal survey, with IRB approval, used since 2008 which is distributed via email to all housestaff officers.

GME Office delivers the survey annually in mid November to all Stanford programs both ACGME and non-ACGME.

All responses are confidential and anonymous. Programs with >3 responses receive aggregated reports.

Page 6: Using an Internal GME House Staff Survey as An Early ......Introduction of the Stanford Housestaff Survey –Analysis & Reporting Responses are aggregated by programs for reporting

Background: Stanford Housestaff Survey – Purpose

Initially designed to gather resident and fellow opinions on the educational quality of their training programs, and to find out about other GME-related issues i.e., how GME needed to function more effectively in meeting our trainees’ needs. “Voice of the Resident”

As the survey has evolved, we saw the potential for it to serve as an Early Warning System for programs to detect potential concerns that could be understood/clarified before the ACGME Resident Survey.

Provides programs with aggregated data for review in their Annual Program Evaluations (APEs) and the Annual Institutional Review (AIR)

Page 7: Using an Internal GME House Staff Survey as An Early ......Introduction of the Stanford Housestaff Survey –Analysis & Reporting Responses are aggregated by programs for reporting

Background: Stanford Housestaff Survey – Questions & Framework

Survey questions parallel the six (6) main domains from the ACGME Resident Survey: Work Hours, Educational Content, Faculty, Evaluation, Resources, Patient Safety/Team Work.

Questions also focus on the institutional areas needing improvement delineated in prior Clinical Learning Environment Review (CLER) site visit reports.

Our focus is on critical questions – Total Survey Time ~ 5-7 minutes maximum.

Additional Questions:

−Added in alternate years

−For research and program quality control purpose

−Up to 5 questions related to GME issues, such as wellbeing, mentorship, etc.

Page 8: Using an Internal GME House Staff Survey as An Early ......Introduction of the Stanford Housestaff Survey –Analysis & Reporting Responses are aggregated by programs for reporting

Core Qualitative Questions:

1. Please explain why you disagree with "I would recommend my training program here at Stanford to others".

2. What did we miss? Are there any other areas of concern or suggestions (GME Office, orientation, call rooms, security at training sites, etc.)?

Introduction of the Stanford Housestaff Survey – Delivery

The GME Office sends an email with the cover letter containing a hyperlink to the survey to all Housestaff Officers.

Participants are informed that all of their responses are totally anonymous and do not include IP addresses, locations of completion, or any other identification information.

Construct Validity – Conclusions

The Stanford Housestaff Survey was proven to test 5 domains of program quality

Grouping of the questions are in general as we hypothesized, with 3 exceptions –

− Variety of patients factored in Faculty as opposed to Clinical Work as we originally thought

− The Overall Group (- overall, how satisfied are you and would you recommend) factored with: Educational Content and Faculty

GME Housestaff Survey positively and significantly correlates with the ACGME Resident Survey, in terms of:

−Overall compliance scores

−Overall program means

−Each independent factor, except one correlation as noted on the previous slide

Average % of program compliance of Resources to the average of 2 related questions in the ACGME survey

−The number of non-compliant questions

GME House Staff Survey positively and significantly correlates with

the ACGME Resident Survey… so what can we do with this data?

Early warning system for Programs and the Institution / validation of each survey

Data for evidence-based change to improve program quality

Information/statistics for DIO to allocate resources

May signal need for Program Special Review
