Section 4: Antimicrobial Stewardship Program Logistics (Fellows)
Content in this section is available through 2 activities.
Activity One | “Shortage Mitigation of Antibiotics in Real Time (SMART)” Exercise |
The first activity is an antibiotic shortage simulation exercise entitled “Shortage Mitigation of Antibiotics in Real Time (SMART)”.
You should prepare for the shortage exercise by researching the SMART preparation questions. Faculty can distribute the questions and provide a brief primer on the activity or you can access the questions and brief primer via the eLearning module.
Ideally, several hours to a week later, faculty will lead a small group exercise while working through the eLearning module as a group. If faculty resources are not available, you are welcome to view/listen to the pre-recorded "SMARTcast Exercise", recorded at IDWeek 2018.
Activity Two | "Reflective Observation, Brief Interview, and Notation (ROBIN)" Exercise |
The second activity in this section is the "Reflective Observation, Brief Interview, and Notation (ROBIN) exercise".
For this component of the curriculum, you will prepare for the exercise with a brief primer on medical staff governance and activity instructions using either the eLearning module or PDF documents distributed by faculty. After meeting with your faculty champion, you will plan to either attend 2 leadership activities (such as AS or Infection Prevention meetings) or interview 2 medical staff leaders. Next, you'll then prepare a one-page write up of your impressions.
