Curriculum Enrollment
Curriculum Overview
- Do residents need to complete the Foundations of Lifestyle Medicine Board Review Course or complete live CME in order to become eligible for lifestyle medicine board certification?
- Once the residents complete the LMRC, what certification body issues course competency?
- Does the curriculum include other aspects of medicine, say from Integrative Medicine, Functional Medicine, and others?
- Is the LMRC specifically designed for certain types of medical specialties?
- What is the Practicum component of the LMRC?
- What is the Educational component of the LMRC?
Curriculum Implementation
- What obstacles arise in scaling and expanding LMRC implementation across programs?
- Can International Medical Graduate (IMG) physicians participate in the LMRC?
- Is the LM Board Review Manual part of the certification process for residents?
- Our site currently implements several lifestyle medicine initiatives that overlap with the LMRC. Can we skip those modules within the LMRC?
- We are concerned our residency program does not have enough time to integrate the LMRC into our already existent program. How have other residency programs navigated meeting the requirements?
- We are concerned that we do not have the lifestyle medicine skills and education as faculty to teach lifestyle medicine to our residents.
