Dealing with the extraordinary: how a community of practice supports resident training during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond
Support from senior physicians and a shared sense of purpose facilitated residents' learning in a rapidly changing, high stakes environment. This accelerated experiential learning occurred through engagement within a CoP. Our findings illustrate how the CoP framework can help residency programs foster adaptive learning and resilience during future large-scale disruptions to medical training.
