The LIFE Curriculum is designed to help residency program directors prevent, identify, and manage fatigue and impairment in their residents and fellows. Although intended as a tool for graduate medical education, the curriculum has themes that are pertinent for medical students, practicing physicians, and others in the health professions. This case-based curriculum, derived from a literature review and needs assessments by North Carolina program directors, includes seven vignettes of typical situations to demonstrate impaired performance and inappropriate behavior. Because all the vignettes involve providing clear, timely feedback, an eighth case addresses the facilitation of instructive feedback.
