Shared Educational Resources Policies
Scope
The policy applies to all Dartmouth-Hitchcock residency and fellowship programs.
Purpose
It is the policy of the DHMC Office of Graduate Medical Education and the GMEC to assure that appropriate and fair processes govern the allocation of resources to GME programs in which there are similarities or overlaps of educational missions.
Policy Guidelines
The DIO and GMEC will assure compliance with the appropriate allocation of resources by gaining information during mid-cycle internal reviews, communicating with each program regarding ACGME requirements and mentoring Program Directors. In addition, the GMEC will give special consideration to existing programs when a department requests a new program that potentially could compete for limited clinical or other educational resources.
If programs report difficulties in the distribution of resources committed to similar or competing training, the DIO will meet with program leaders to assess the distribution and to report these findings to the GMEC, which will recommend corrective action.
