Family Medicine Teachers

What do family physicians teach?

McGill’s Family medicine curriculum is built around the Principles of Family Medicine and a competency-based framework for medical education.

Learn more about competency-based education by reviewing the following CFPC links.

“The CanMEDS-FM framework defines the competencies appropriate for family physicians providing comprehensive care, which all residents will work toward throughout their training.”

You can learn more about the CanMeds Framework here. It identifies and describe the abilities family physicians require to effectively meet the health care needs of the people they serve. These abilities are grouped thematically under seven roles.
