Community-based medical education refers to medical training which takes place in small rural communities under the supervision of medical clinicians and GPs. This guide is for physicians involved in training medical students in such settings. It covers both academic principles and the practical management of learners, offering advice on contracting, monitoring, evaluation, and bedside and operating room teaching. Culture in medicine, teaching international medical graduates, and dealing with the difficult learner are also discussed. Although the focus is on rural communities, the book includes a chapter on inner city rotations, highlighting the similar cultural and socio-economic issues faced by rural communities. Professional issues and preventing burnout are also treated. The book features many short chapters with bullet points and summary tables. Kelly teaches at the Northern Ontario School of Medicine. The book is published by Radcliffe Publishing, UK, and distributed in the US by BookMasters. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
