Program evaluation is essential to maintain quality and check if the program's intended outcomes or training are met. This assessment helps strengthen the quality of programs and improve the outcomes for the recipient (of the service/training, etc.). Neurology and Psychiatry are two separate disciplines dealing with the same organ system … the brain (or the mind). With the looming implementation of the Universal Health Law and the endeavor of both specialties to achieve autonomy from Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, it is high time to evaluate an old (seasoned) program that offers Neurology and Psychiatry in a combined comprehensive curriculum spread in a 4-year training period. This proposed evaluation framework utilizes the CIPP Evaluation Model authored by Daniel Stufflebeam in the 1960s (CIPP Model | Poorvu Center for Teaching and Learning, n.d.). CIPP, an acronym for CONTEXT, INPUT, PROCESS, and PRODUCT evaluation, is a decision-oriented model that systematically collects information about a program to identify strengths, limitations, areas for improvement, impact, effectiveness, and sustainability. This evaluation proposal aims to answer if the training program is at par with or aligned with at least the minimum requirements of both specialties and is equal to similar programs outside of the Philippines certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. Furthermore, it aims to check if the current duration of training and the allocated time for areas of rotations are sufficient to fulfill the requisites set by the accreditation bodies and adequate to satisfy the terminal competencies required of the trainees. This evaluation is designed for internal (department executive committee) and external evaluators (representatives from ANSB, PBP, ABPN) for program improvement. Context Evaluation will investigate the needs and opportunities, the department’s status regarding accreditation, services, and training offered, number of applicants, etc. Input Evaluation checks and determines available monetary or other forms of resources (cases/patients, facility, teaching and training staff, etc.). It will also check future directions and align with available standards or prescribed requirements of accrediting bodies. Process Evaluation will assess the processes, how the program is being executed, how the resources are properly utilized and appropriately allocated. It will investigate assessment and evaluation methodologies, standardize the rubrics, scales, checklists, etc. Finally, Product Evaluation will concentrate on the training graduates, the satisfaction and perceived effectiveness of the training by the current trainees, and check if the intended training outcomes are met. This evaluation seeks to assess if the program can still be improved, if parts of the training curriculum can be pruned, if there is a need for more rotations, longer durations, more trainers, etc. It hopes to prove or disprove if the program can deliver and produce outcomes at par with other similar programs outside of the Philippines or if the graduates are in comparison with, if not superior, to, graduates of straight programs in either Neurology or Psychiatry. Moreover, it is to substantiate its sustainability amid the implementation of the Universal Health Law and increasing restrictions of both accreditation bodies. Program evaluation.
