Cler Equally Mud

Back inwards April, I raised the interrogation of why the ACGME was non publishing the results of its surveys amongst regard to CLER, Clinical Learning Environmental Review.  The programme description states:

CLER emphasizes the responsibleness of the sponsoring establishment for the character in addition to security of the environs for learning in addition to patient care, a key dimension of the 2011 ACGME Common Program Requirements. The intent of CLER is “to generate national information on programme in addition to institutional attributes that accept a salutary trial on character in addition to security inwards settings where residents larn in addition to on the character of attention rendered after graduation.”

CLER provides frequent on-site sampling of the learning environs that will:

• increase the educational emphasis on patient security demanded yesteryear the public; and,
• provide chance for sponsoring institutions to demonstrate leadership inwards patient safety, character improvement, in addition to reduction inwards wellness attention disparities.

The interrogation remains, months later:  Where is the information that the ACGME collects well-nigh this of import GME character in addition to security curriculum? Why can't medical students who are interested inwards joining hospitals amongst vibrant patient security in addition to character programs run across it during their residency represent process?

And fundamentally, why won't the ACGME model the form of transparency that is needed to convey well-nigh clinical procedure improvement?
