Our all-encompassing educational and clinical reference platform supports throughout all residency years
Year 1
First-year residents may have been exposed to varying levels of clinical reasoning education and clinical scenarios during medical school.
NEJM Healer lets educators establish a baseline for each incoming resident’s clinical reasoning skill level and identify residents who need improvement. Residents can use NEJM Healer during their internship period to practice safely outside of patient encounters as they continue to master their skills.
Year 2
In their second year, residents begin to take on more direct patient-care responsibilities.
NEJM Healer can help these residents continue along their path to developing strong clinical judgment and practicing independently. Educators can use the application to quickly identify residents who aren’t meeting critical thresholds for remediation and coaching.
Year 3
Most third-year residents have mastered clinical reasoning skills and have started to move into the next stage of their career as mentor and educator to younger residents.
NEJM Healer gives third-years a formal tool for teaching and assessing their interns and undergraduate clinical students.
