This is not designed to indicate any specific requirements for each level, but to provide insight into the thinking of the Milestone Work Group. Included in this document is the intent of each Milestone and examples of what a Clinical Competency Committee (CCC) might expect to be observed/assessed at each level. Also included are suggested assessment models and tools for each subcompetency, references, and other useful information. Review this guide with the CCC and faculty members. As the program develops a shared mental model of the Milestones, consider creating an individualized guide (Supplemental Guide Template available) with institution/program-specific examples, assessment tools used by the program, and curricular components. Additional tools and references, including the Milestones Guidebook, Clinical Competency Committee Guidebook, and Milestones Guidebook for Residents and Fellows, are available on the Resources page of the Milestones section of the ACGME website. 3 Preventive Medicine – Occupational Medicine Supplemental Guide Patient Care 1: History and Physical Examination Overall Intent: To obtain and document an accurate, detailed occupational/environmental history for work fitness, workplace injury/exposure, impairment assessment, and safety-sensitive tasks; to perform both a comprehensive and a focused, directed physical examination suited to the presentation Milestones Examples Level 1 Obtains an accurate history ● Obtains a competent clinical history consistent with a PGY-1 skill level ● Elicits the chief complaint, history of present illness, past medical history, surgical history, medications, allergies, family history, and social history Performs a basic physical exam accurately ● Performs a physical examination to at least the proficiency level of a PGY-1 resident ● Performs all components of a general physical exam, including head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat, neck, cardiovascular, pulmonary, abdominal, musculoskeletal/extremities, neurological, and mental health exams Level 2 Obtains and reports an accurate and ● Obtains a Level 1 history and includes information regarding current employer, length of organized history, including occupational and time in current position, job title, job tasks, and mechanism of injury; or includes environmental history information regarding history of environmental exposure; presents history in an organized manner ● Begins to obtain information regarding disability risks factors, including alcohol use (heavy or at-risk drinking behaviors), smoking and tobacco use, illicit drug use (including non- medical use of a prescription drug), body measurements and overweight/obesity status (weight circumference, body mass index (BMI)), diet/nutrition (e.g., fast food, caffeine, sugar sweetened beverages), physical activity (e.g., intensity, duration, type; aerobic versus strengthening), sleep hygiene, and functioning in the six domains (seeing, hearing, mobility, communication, cognition, self-care) Performs an accurate and organized physical ● Performs and presents an organized examination, following a template such as exam, and identifies appropriate physical inspection, palpation, auscultation, percussion, range of motion, strength testing, findings for the chief complaint neurovascular (e.g., sensation, reflexes, coordination, gate, pulses/circulation), and relevant special tests ● Focuses presentation on pertinent positives and negatives based on patient’s chief complaint (e.g., focus on musculoskeletal exam if patient presents with musculoskeletal complaint) 4 Preventive Medicine – Occupational Medicine Supplemental Guide Level 3 Consistently obtains and reports a ● Obtains a Level 2 history and seeks/obtains data from secondary sources such as a comprehensive and accurate history, including formal job description from the employer, safety data sheets from the employer, data on occupational and environmental factors, and documented exposures from online sources such as the Agency for Toxic Substances seeks appropriate data from secondary sources and Disease Registry (ATSDR), has the patient sign authorization for release of medical records from outside providers, obtains exposure records/information from employers (including site-specific sampling, relevant to the worker’s position), contacts former employers, etc. ● Uses information regarding disability risk factors to begin to identify patients at risk ● Includes the patient’s risk factors in consideration of the initial treatment plan and follow- up visit schedule Consistently performs an accurate and thorough ● Performs a Level 2 physical examination with skill and accuracy, including skilled use of physical examination, and reports relevant relevant special tests for the clinical presentation findings in support of likely clinical diagnosis ● For a patient with complaints of onset of shoulder pain after overhead work, select correct special clinical tests (e.g., Neer’s, Hawkin’s, or empty can tests) and explains the clinical relevance of test findings Level 4 Consistently obtains and concisely ● Obtains a Level 3 history; documents an occupational/environmental history accurately reports a focused history, including occupational and in detail including exposure assessment, review
