HOW ARE LEND TRAINEE OUTCOMES TYPICALLY MEASURED?

§ NIRS Survey (the survey LEND Directors love to hate)

§ Common program evaluation technique § Comparison of long-term to short-term trainees (Kavanagh et al., 2015)

§ New Techniques

§ Faculty observation of family centered and interprofessional care using the I-FOR (Brosco et al. 2018)

§ Studies generally find that:

§ Trainee skills improve during LEND training (Brosco et al. 2018) § Long-term trainees are more likely to work on interdisciplinary teams and with MCH and vulnerable populations (Kavanagh et al., 2015)

ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD:

Could previous positive effects of LEND be caused by something other than LEND training?

THE LEND OUTCOMES STUDY

§ Multi-site (Pittsburgh, Nisonger, Waisman) § Matched case control study

§ Closest ethically and programmatically feasible methodology to randomized controlled trial

§ Prospective § Longitudinal (at least 10 years; currently in year 4)

LEND OUTCOMES FOLLOW-UP SURVEY

§ Initial core competency survey developed based on “expert”

  • pinion of trainee skills and competencies

§ Surveyed non-trainees in research labs Non-trainees thought that their skills in LEND Core Competencies were excellent

FOCUS GROUPS

§ 2017 AUCD Annual Meeting § Questions:

§ What types of leadership roles are you training your trainees to take

  • n?

§ What makes LEND graduates different from their peers who did not receive LEND training? § How are you defining MCH populations with your trainees?

§ Transcribed and analyzed using content analysis

FOCUS GROUPS: FIVE THEMES

THE “ACTIVE INGREDIENTS” OF LEND TRAINING

What Differentiates LEND Trainees

Interdisciplinary Approach Advocacy Engagement Life Course Perspective Systems-Level Orientation Intersectional Orientation

(Vulnerable Populations & Cultural Competency)

LEND OUTCOMES FOLLOW-UP SURVEY DEVELOPMENT

In clinical trials, the “active ingredients” should align with how treatment effects are measured…

Other Possible “Active Ingredients”:

  • Leadership
  • Engagement with

disabilities/SHCN

  • Research experience

BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD

Faculty Pilot Process and Results

  • Piloted with 14 LEND and non-LEND faculty

members and family stakeholders

  • Feedback obtained from AUCD staff
  • Took, on average, 25.29 minutes to complete
  • Suggestions to:
  • Remove redundancy
  • Reduce focus on academic positions and

academic leadership

  • Add questions: MCH competencies, core

LEND leadership skills, job satisfaction and reason for taking current position Revisions Based on Faculty Pilot

  • Reduced long and burdensome questions
  • Removed redundancy
  • Reduced focus on academia and academic

leadership

  • Added questions about:
  • MCH competencies
  • Core LEND leadership skills
  • Job satisfaction and reason for taking

current position LEND OUTCOMES FOLLOW-UP SURVEY DEVELOPMENT

BENEFITS OF LEND

§ LEND trainees are more likely to:

§ Work with MCH populations § Work with vulnerable populations § Endorse high-level leadership skills § Work on interdisciplinary teams § Participate in research § Participate in advocacy § Participate in policy practice

IMPLICATIONS

LEND DOES NOT IMPACT

§ Type of role or workplace § Endorsement of agreement with:

§ MCH skills and competencies § LEND skills and competencies § Intersectional orientation § Life course perspective

IMPLICATIONS

slide-28
SLIDE 28

IMPLICATIONS AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS

§ Strong methodology increased confidence in findings § Preliminary interpretation: identified significant differences: perspectives

  • vs. actual activities

§ Both LEND trainees and comparison peers self-report that they are leaders and utilize MCH and LEND skills and competencies, but § LEND trainees actual work activities included significantly more leadership activities § Results are preliminary and analysis is ongoing: need feedback from LEND Network § Future: publication of results; refinement of survey; more data collection

IMPLICATIONS
