Description
A long time ago, inamedical galaxy far, far away, medical
education was a simple matter of apprenticeship:
You washed up on the shores of a residency.
For three years, you did anesthesia.
The residency released you into the wild, with the
admonition, “Go ye forth and minister anesthesia
unto the people.”
But, alas, as time passed, the educational process grew
in complexity.
Enter the Core Clinical Competencies.
Wise men and women gathered themselves together
and reconsidered the apprenticeship idea. And
thusly they spake, “The doctors know not of what they
teach. They are misguided and errant in their ways.
For them to teach unto their young charges, theymust
teachaswe, thewisemenandwomenof education, feel
you must teach.”
And the wise men and women of education
climbed a great mountain, to seek commandments.
They sought 10, but found they only 6. And these six
commandments, they were writ in stone and given
unto the wise men and women of education. From
themountain came they down, bearing six commandments
with them. And they showed these six commandments
to all who would teach doctors the art of
healing the halt and lame.
