October 2023 - Fafs-mahn - University of Manitoba Mailing Lists

by Jessica Rutherford

Hello Everyone, Way back during Orientation week, some of you asked me about the possibility of purchasing MAHN hoodies. Over the past few weeks, Nofisat has been hard at work looking into various options. Unfortunately, we are not able to purchase the UM bookstore version as they require a minimum purchase of 48 hoodies. The option we are moving forward with is from Pembina Source for Sports. The hoody will be $35+tax and our order must be for one sweater colour and font color. The colour we choose this year will be the colour we use each year going forward; therefore it should be a neutral colour. We have identified 4 neutral options below. The font is intended to be font colours taken from the UM logo. ONLY if you are interested in purchasing a hoody, send me an e-mail indicating your interest AND respond to this poll (View/vote in browser<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=C92AT4wzTE6KFJBEaWL3uFZ…>). We will require interest from at least 8 students to move forward as we need to place an order for at least 20 (MAHN staff will be purchasing, and we will purchase some to go with the preceptor awards). We will choose the colour combination that is most popular. Please respond by end of day Friday as we will proceed with collecting orders next week. The hoody colours referenced in the poll can be viewed at this link (and the font colours are all colours from the UM logo) Gildan Adult Heavy Blend(tm) 8 oz., 50/50 Hooded Sweatshirt | alphabroder Canada<https://www.alphabroder.ca/product/g185/gildan-adult-heavy-blend-8-oz-5050-…> Here is a mockup. It will have "MAHN" down one sleeve and the full program name on the front. If there is unanimous support from those interested, we could look at the possibility of the student version having MAHNSTER instead of MAHN down the sleeve. Please let me know your preference in your e-mail to me.

MAHN Student Placement Survey and other reminders

by Jessica Rutherford

Hello All, There are only two days left in your first placement! Here are some reminders of upcoming tasks:. 1. You must complete and submit your final student assessment for the first placement. Remember these must be completed, signed, and submitted in the presence of your preceptor! Do not rate yourself prior to reviewing with your preceptor. It is your preceptor's role as your teacher to rate you in each category. Work with your preceptor to make sure they have set aside time today or tomorrow to meet with you to review and complete your form. 2. By the beginning of next week , e-mail your preceptor(s) for next placement to introduce yourself. They have already received your portfolio and your placement schedule. If you have more than one preceptor on your precepting team, be sure to include all your preceptors in your communication (contact MAHN.info if you require the e-mail addresses for your preceptor team). Be sure to check your on-line (living) version of your placement schedule on Typhon in case there have been updates. 3. Your honest feedback related to your placements is important to us! Please complete your placement evaluation survey by Sunday November 5th. This is a program requirement and late submissions will be treated as late assignments. You can access the survey on UM Learn by clicking on Assessments- Survey-MAHN Placement Survey. This survey is NOT anonymous however, individual feedback will NOT be shared with the preceptor or with anyone beyond MAHN program staff. At the end of the year, we will collate student feedback and will share high-level, anonymous feedback to all preceptors and to the FHNS Dietetics Committee. 4. You must complete placement pre-readings by next Thursday. Please check your on-line schedules on Typhon to determine your assigned readings for your next placement. Quizzes for all assigned reading modules MUST be submitted and you must achieve 70% in order to proceed to your next placement .

MAHN- Student Placement Assessment- General Feedback

by MAHN Info

Sending on behalf of Jessica Rutherford: Hello All, I have reviewed your placement assessment forms and most of you did well on the forms given that this was the first time for you, the preceptors, and the program. I have put together a document containing expectations and tips for success. this can be found under the content tab or by clicking the lin</d2l/common/dialogs/quickLink/quickLink.d2l?ou=%7borgUnitId%7d&type=content&rcode=UManitoba-2685740>k. Here is a summary of some of my general observations. If, after reading the summary below and the document I prepared, you need additional support or you have questions, please schedule office time with me using the booking link on UM Learn. * I heard form preceptors, that a few students waited until the last night or two before your assessment meeting to compile your examples. DO NOT do this. Examples should be documented frequently (AT LEAST weekly but ideally every evening). The reason for this is 1. You will forget important details if you wait too long to add examples, 2. It is stressful for you to try to log all your examples in one evening and what happens if you miss something (remember if it is not recorded IT DID NOT HAPPEN)? 3. Your examples will not be as well constructed if you are rushing, and this will add additional stress for you and your preceptor during your meeting. * In your examples, you must convey the level of supervision received (did you observe, do something independently), be specific about what you did and clearly link it to the competency. See the linked document for examples. * Population Health Promotion and Food Provision are, for the most part, project-based placements. This means you are achieving competency through the competent completion of projects. I found the examples and the rating within these placements were generally well constructed. * The Nutrition Care placements are, for the most part, not project based. The nutrition care process is a competency that you will build over the 18 weeks of nutrition care placement. For some of the nutrition care assessments, more specific information is required. You must make the link between what you did and how it relates to the competency. If the link is not clear than it will not be clear to me or your preceptor. * DO NOT expect to be competent in all the nutrition care competencies until your final placement. It is not a race, and you are not competing with your peers. Each of you will progress at different rates and each of you will have different strengths and weaknesses. * Each preceptor has different backgrounds, worldviews etc. and this may impact how they assess competency. We have provided training and various mechanisms to help ensure consistency between preceptors however, there will always be some variation in how each preceptor determines competence just as there may be some variation in how instructors teach. * I know some of you are anxious about achieving your competencies and may be feeling anxiety with your final placement evaluation looming. If you are in a nutrition care placement and you do not achieve competency in all, or even in any, of the performance indicators that is fine. That is expected! I am looking for progression in the nutrition care competencies throughout your three nutrition care placements with competency attainment by the end of the third placement. * if you have a population health or food provision placement and you do not achieve competence in one or some of the required competencies, it will be okay! The process will be that we will discuss this at our supportive check-in meeting and then you will lead the development of a plan to obtain the missed competencies. The activities required will depend on the specific competencies and number of competencies missed.
