FATIGUE RISK MANAGEMENT TASK FORCE

The 2013 report Fatigue, Risk and Excellence: Towards a Pan-Canadian Consensus on Resident Duty Hours recognized that there are many factors that contribute to resident fatigue. A one-size-fits-all approach to minimizing fatigue and fatigue-related risk would therefore be insufficient. In response to these Key Findings, the Fatigue Risk Management (FRM) project was launched in 2013 with the aim of producing the first national resource on FRM in Canadian Postgraduate Medical Education (PGME). The FRM project is based on the FRM guiding principles.
