Video Summary

Dr. Jordan Broadway, a third-year psychiatry resident at Duke, led an interactive session alongside colleagues Dr. Myles Christensen and Dr. Brian Lau. The session aimed to explore the integration of virtual learning through "chalk talks" into patient care. They began by discussing the pros and cons of virtual learning platforms, followed by a simulated patient encounter showcasing decision-making strategies. Attendees were encouraged to consider the practical application of chalk talks in improving patient engagement and decision-making. The session highlighted the potential for virtual platforms to enhance treatment discussions, allowing clinicians to provide clear, repeatable frameworks for patient education. Challenges such as potential distraction, the need for thorough preparation, and the technical limitations of digital tools were discussed. Emphasis was placed on creating accessible and reusable content to streamline patient communication and facilitate learning for trainees. The interactive component allowed participants to brainstorm and exchange ideas on implementing chalk talks in their settings, ranging from patient education to residency training. The session concluded with a reflection on the importance of using these tools to better support patient and trainee engagement, aiming to improve overall patient care outcomes.
