Entrustment Scale:
As residents progress through their training toward independent practice, entrustment scales can be used to assess resident performance. The STFM CBME task force recommends the following entrustment scale:
- Participated only as an observer or required faculty to do.
- Required direct supervision with significant faculty assistance.
- Required indirect supervision with minimal faculty assistance.
- Completed independently, without need for assistance.
- Demonstrated the ability to role model or teach others.
