Making Time for Precepting With Bruce Williams, DO, FACOFP dist. | Precepting Edition #1

Many physicians worry they don't have time to precept. Yet preceptorship holds value in enhancing patient care, supporting lifelong learning, and helping medical students grow into confident, competent osteopathic physicians.

In this first episode of DO.fm: Precepting Edition, Bruce Williams, DO, FACOFP dist., associate dean of clinical education at Kansas City University and past ACOFP president, shares how he integrates students into his practice in ways that don’t add to his stress — and in some cases even help with workflow.

Dr. Williams shares:

• Ways to integrate students into real patient care so they contribute meaningfully without slowing clinic flow;
• Simple habits to stay organized, keep charts and paperwork current, and prevent stress from piling up;
• How precepting refines students’ clinical skills, keeps his own knowledge sharp, and pays off when learners match into residency;
• And more
