The purpose of this Office on Women's Health funded Trauma-Informed Care virtual patient initiative is to produce and implement a comprehensive set of online, interactive clinical cases for physicians and other healthcare providers. These cases focus on the prevalence, consequences, and impact of trauma, and how healthcare practitioners can provide trauma-informed care for diverse populations. Upon completion of authoring and full launch of this course, continuing medical education credits will be offered.
TIC’s first cases were completed in the fall of 2015 and new cases are planned through 2018. We are now seeking Physician Case Authors for 2017. We are specifically looking for physicians (MD or DO) with:
1) interest, experience, and expertise in trauma-informed care in the clinical setting
2) experience authoring educational case-based scenarios using reputable literature OR a willingness to be trained by the leadership team in this area and
3) the time and interest to devote to this project
As a Physician Case Author, you will commit to approximately a total of 80 hours during the months of February-September (training, conducting literature review, writing, revising, and finalizing cases). You will be paired with a psychologist/behavioral scientist co-author. There will be a required 2-hour webinar training session to kick off the project, followed by weekly 1-hour calls with your co-author for a total of 12 weeks during the authoring process. You will be responsible for participation in subsequent post-meeting conference calls, and the performance of any and all independent work to finalize your case by September 2017. In return, you will be acknowledged as a Case Author and receive an honorarium in the amount of $1,000. Letters of acknowledgement are provided by MedU.
The projected time frame for this project is now through September 2017. If you are interested, please send your CV and a written work product (article, book chapter, etc.). All inquiries and applications should be made to Emily Jacobs, MedU Project Manager and Lead Instructional Designer, at emily.jacobs@med-u.org.
The TIC collaboration between the U.S. Health and Human Services’ Office on Women’s Health and MedU began in October 2014. The Project Directors and subject matter experts for this initiative are. Sheela Raja, PhD and. Shairi Turner, MD, MPH.
