AbstractThe term undifferentiated physician is applied to those physicians who have not received or are not receiving formal postgraduate training in emergency medicine. Many community and university hospitals offer an "emergency medicine" experience to this group of physicians, but most do not follow a defined curriculum. This set of educational objectives was developed under the auspices of the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians (CAEP). The objectives are based on an instructional design model known as a Systems Approach Model, which is an objective-based model. The objectives are intended for the undifferentiated physician whose practice will include emergency department (ED) work. The objectives are based on a 2-month rotation in the ED under the supervision of an attending physician who has either College of Family Physicians of Canada or Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada certification in emergency medicine. The purpose of these objectives is to provide guidelines for a uniform framework for the basic emergency medicine education of these undifferentiated physicians.
