Background: Free Open-Access Medical education (FOAM) use among residents continues to rise. However, it often lacks quality assurance processes and residents receive little guidance on quality assessment. The Academic Life in Emergency Medicine Approved Instructional Resources tool (AAT) was created for FOAM appraisal by and for expert educators and has demonstrated validity in this context. It has yet to be evaluated in other populations. Objectives: We assessed the AAT's usability in a diverse population of practicing emergency medicine (EM) physicians, residents, and medical students; solicited feedback; and developed a revised tool.
Introduction: Disease-specific training to improve management of chronic diseases is essential in the context of the patient-centered medical home. Achieving provider and staff satisfaction with practices and training is critical for successful patient care. Models for assessing satisfaction in the context of diabetes management have been reported. Here we extend this work to diabetes prevention.
