Fellowship Program Directors
Curriculum Guide for MFM Fellows
Education in patient safety and healthcare quality is an essential component of fellowship training in maternal-fetal medicine. To assist MFM fellows and fellowship program directors in achieving the educational objectives on patient safety and quality required by the Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), SMFM's Patient Safety & Quality Committee developed the following three tools.
- Curriculum Outline: summarizes the ACGME requirements, some suggested readings and activities for each requirement and a timeline for completion of each requirement.
- Quality Improvement Project Toolkit: helps fellows design, implement, analyze, and report their own quality improvement projects
- Primer on Patient Safety and Healthcare Quality for MFM Fellows: provides a brief synopsis of many essential topics in patient safety and healthcare quality. Each chapter is mentioned in the Curriculum Outline as a suggested reading during the appropriate month of fellowship.
NEW! MFM SLOE (Standard Letter of Evaluation):
The MFM SLOE was designed by the MFM Fellowship affairs committee and approved by the SMFM Board, with the goal of evaluating the key traits important for a successful MFM fellow and MFM provider.
