Project Title: Confidence in Addictions Medicine Among Family Medicine Educators

Project End Date: June 1, 2022

Survey Link:  https://redcap.link/AddictionMedEdSurvey

We are looking for physicians who have been involved in teaching family medicine residents to participate in a study to further our understanding of addiction medicine education. Participation in this study will assist with potential curriculum development and add to a very sparse area of research. We are interested in the confidence of family physicians in practicing and teaching various areas of addiction medicine. The following survey should take approximately 10-15 minutes.

To show our appreciation, we will invite you to enter an optional draw for a $50 Visa gift card. The email that you provide for the lottery draw will be used ONLY to send you the gift card should you win and will not be associated with your data in any way.

This project has been approved by the University of Alberta Human Research Ethics Board (ID: Pro00117478).

My name is Smitha Yaltho and I feel privileged to work as a family physician. Why? I believe that being a family physician has been the best job any physician can hope to have. I have personally grown in my own abilities and skill-sets with diverse opportunities in ambulatory practice, acute care and work in Facility Living.  Working in primary care has been exciting and has also afforded me tremendous opportunities for growth while still remaining stimulating in its complexity.  I believe that Family physicians are trusted partners in patient care –  every step of the way. 

Why are you volunteering to serve on this committee?
I currently have an interest in Physician Leadership and  trauma informed care.  I have served as a director with the Board of Directors with the Edmonton North PCN, Edmonton’s largest PCN. Thereafter, I have worked as the Director of Medical Services with CapitalCare (also based in Edmonton) for almost 6 years. It is my express wish that my contribution on the ACFP board of directors will highlight the excellence of family medicine that exists right here and now within the Alberta health care system. 

What about the ACFP’s work do you find most valuable?
Ability to highlight and further support the excellence of primary care right here in Alberta.
