PRESIDENT’S NOTE

Dr. Richard Goudie

CASEM President 2015-2016

Président ACMSE 2015-2016

One would think the fall was quiet. I was wondering what I would chat about in this address and I soon realized

much has been happening.

The first group of primary care CASEM recipients of the CCFP (SEM) designation has started to roll out.

The announcement took place during the Family Medicine Forum in Toronto in November. This leads the first wave

composed of members from the Leader and Resident paths. We have been informed by the CFPC that the next

application details will come in the new year. Much thanks has to be directed at our colleagues who have spent

countless hours, and I should say days and weeks, over the last few years paving this road. I tip my hat to Lisa Fischer

and Merrilee Zetaruk who is still working hard on the Royal College front.

Just when we thought we were saturated with concussions in sports, get ready for the next explosion. In Ontario, the

death of a 17 year-old rugby athlete from complications from a concussion has led to the writing of Bill 149. Also

known as Rowan’s Law, it is up for voting on December 10. If it passes, Ontario will be the first in Canada with con-

cussion related legislation. This will include an expert advisory committee to help the implementation of the recom-

mendations after the inquiry into Rowan Stringer’s death.

On the National front, our new Liberal government sees the announcement of a Minister of Sport and People with

Disabilities. The Honorable Carla Qualtrough, MP from Delta BC, will lead efforts with a busy mandate as detailed by

PM Trudeau himself. She is a decorated Canadian Paralympian who has continued working close to athletes and

sports in her legal career. Her initial Ministerial task has already been announced with joint efforts with the Minister

of Health Jane Philpott as they will start looking at a National Strategy related to concussions in sport. I am trying to

set up a meeting with the Ministers to offer CASEM’s expertise in helping with all these challenges.

Then there’s the movie “Concussion” staring Will Smith, coming out at Christmas time. His role as Dr Omalu, the

neuropathologist relating evidence of CTE in NFL players’ brains with their history of concussions, is sure to create a

stir. I am sure the NFL wished this was not under their Christmas tree.

I wish everyone healthy and active Holidays and hope to see you all in Victoria in May.

Richard Goudie

Je pensais que l’ automne avait été tranquille et je me demandais de quoi j’allais discuter dans ce bulletin mais j’ai

bientôt réalisé que beaucoup prenait place.

Le premier groupe de médecins en soins primaires de ACMSE récipiendaires de la désignation MCMF (MSE) ont été

annoncés au dernier Forum de Médecine Familiale à Toronto en Novembre. C’était la première vague composée de

membres des voies de « Leaders » et de Résidents. Le Collège nous informe que les détails concernant les prochaines

voies d’application nous seront communiqués dans le nouvel an.

Des remerciements sont de mise à nos collègues qui ont passés d’innombrables heures, et je devrais dire jours et se-

maines, durant les dernières années à construire cette route. Chapeau à Lisa Fischer et Merrilee Zetaruk qui travaillent

encore sans arrêt pour la voie parallèle au Collège Royal.

Juste lorsqu’on se croyait saturés avec les commotions cérébrales dans le sport, soyez prêts pour la prochaine explo-

sion. En Ontario, le décès d’une athlète de rugby suite à des complications d’une commotion a mené au développe-

ment du Projet de Loi 149. Aussi connu sous le nom de la Loi de Rowan, elle sera soumise au vote le 10 décembre. Si

la loi est adoptée, l’Ontario sera la première province au Canada à posséder une loi par rapport aux commotions céré-

brales. Il sera alors nécessaire d’établir un comité d’experts pour aider à l’implémentation des recommandations

émises après l’enquête du décès de Rowan Stringer.

Du coté national, notre nouveau gouvernement Libéral a établi le ministre des sports et des personnes handicapées.

L’Honorable Carla Qualtrough, MP de Delta en CB, dirigera les efforts avec un lourd mandat détaillé par Trudeau lui-

même. Une paralympienne multi-médaillée, elle a continué à travailler près des athlètes et des sports dans sa carrière

légale. Sa tâche ministérielle initiale a déjà été annoncée, en partenariat avec le ministre de la santé Jane Philpott , de

développer une stratégie nationale reliée aux commotions dans les sports. Je tente d’organiser une rencontre avec les

ministres pour leur offrir l’expertise de l’ACMSE dans ces nouveaux défis.

Ensuite on a le film « Concussion » avec Will Smith qui sortira à Noël. Il prend le rôle de Dr Omalu, le neuropatholo-

giste qui a établi une association entre les encéphalopathies chroniques traumatiques dans les cerveaux de joueurs de

la LNF et leurs antécédents de commotions. Je crois que cela va brasser! Je ne crois pas que la LNF souhaite ce ca-

deau sous leur arbre de Noël.

Je vous souhaite tous une saison des fêtes active et pleine de santé. J’espère vous voir à Victoria en Mai.

These thoughts are prominent within the membership. I used to think them as well when I first joined 20 years ago.

When I started my career as a military physician, we had to undergo the same Officer Training as other branches of

our Canadian Forces including combat and support personnel. One item is still holding as much importance to me as I

learned it initially and it is crucial in all aspects of what we do: “Keep the troops informed”. This was important during

wartime when preventing rumors could mean everything from preventing a mutiny to having everyone fight toward

the same objective. So to prevent a mutiny, I will detail the world of the Selection Committee.

I hope you will gain much insight in the whole selection process.

S E L E C T I O N C O M M I T T E E

Games. I want to go to Games. Who makes that decision anyway? It’s always the same people. “The Old Boys Club”…..maybe it should be the “Old Girls Club”.

Interesting scoop: the Selection

Committee doesn’t “select” anyone!

That might be news to many of you. The Committee has a

Chair and used to have a bunch of regular “members”. Their

job is to review each applicant and assign them a score. This is

done by scoring various elements of their experience accord-

ing to a “Grid”. More information on the Grid can be found

below. When all applicants have their score, a list is composed

and a ranking established.

Since a member of the Committee applying for a major event

cannot be part of this process, it has always involved a wide

variety of reviewers. There is therefore no regular member

anymore as each event requires the Chair to call colleagues

and ask for volunteering time to review applications.

So the work of the Selection Committee is to review all candi-

dates’ applications and to submit a ranked list to the CMO and

the organization that asked for it to create a team for a major

event. The CMO with the support of the organization selects

the team.

What’s the deal with the “Grid”?

The Grid is already many years old and highlights experiences

at Major Games, Provincial Games, and volunteer work local-

ly for various sport events or as part of the medical staff for

teams. When it was originally amended by some of our mem-

bers many years ago, scores were assigned for work for organ-

izations, teaching, attending courses, language abilities, ATLS

and ACLS.

The Grid is presently being changed again with more focus on

various elements considered better identifiers of what consists

the optimal physician at a multisport major event. When final-

ized, it will be presented to the Board for approval.

How does selection “really” work?

Here’s the process using the Paralympic Games as an example.

The Rio Paralympics are being planned.

The Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC) sends a letter of

request to CASEM. It states what they require, typically a

CMO then some MDs for the Core team.

Dawn sends a “call for application” email to all CASEM mem-

bers.

Members apply using the application form.

At the deadline, Dawn sends all applications to the Chair of the

Selection Committee.

After reviewing the names, the Chair will call colleagues who

are not applying themselves and ask if they are interested in

reviewing applications for the Paralympic Games. This group

is typically composed of 4-5 members with experience as part

of past major Games.

After each has spent time scoring the candidates and establish-

es their ranking, a telephone conference takes place and each

reviewer’s list is discussed.

A final ranked list is created.

The list for CMO applicants is sent to the CPC.

The CPC decides if they want to interview candidates. If they

do not, they select the CMO. A rare occurrence can see the

organization (the CPC in this case) not satisfied with the pre-

sented list and request a second call for application. They can

also select someone without paying attention to the list.

The CMO receives the ranking list from the Selection Commit-

tee looking at MDs for the Core team.

The CMO reviews the list and picks the core members of the

Health and Science team.

The CMO reviews this list with the CPC to assure they ap-

prove.

The CMO communicates with the selected candidate to con-

firm they still want to be part of the core team for the Rio Para-

lympics.

I want to be part of Games.

…how come I can never be part

of Games…..?

CON’T ON PAGE 5

So the CMO makes the final decision?

Well, yes…and no.

The CMO has the most authoritative decision but the organization re-

quiring CASEM physicians, in this case the CPC, can veto any candi-

date. This can be in a positive format: “We want this doctor to be at the

Games.” This could be because of positive past experiences or because

one NSO wants that MD on site and accredited but the NSO can’t get

them in with their allowed accreditation numbers. It can be in the nega-

tive format where the CPC could voice: “We do not want this physi-

cian as part of our Canadian Team. “

These latter scenarios are not common, as the organization usually

trusts the CMO with their guidance and knowledge to get the best per-

sonnel on the ground.

Basically, the CMO builds the team from the list received from the

Selection Committee. The CMO can also ask for a second call for ap-

plications.

So the top ranked MDs are always at the Games?

As discussed in the item above, this is not always true. Even if a mem-

ber scores really well, is within the top 3 candidates on the list for-

warded to the CMO, the latter can decide to select someone who would

have ranked in 7th place. It’s all about the balance, composition, skillset

and experience of members forming the team.

Members helping with the ranking process comment frequently about

“non scorable elements”. How do you score “willing to help at all

times”, “always has a reason they cannot help out in the clinic”, “great

team player” or “narrow minded and condescending attitude toward

non medical personnel?”

These items are brought forward during the discussion the CMO might,

or is encouraged to, have with other past Games CMO who have

worked with some high ranking candidates. One cannot assume their

fantastic resume will get them on the team every time they apply.

Then how come its “always the same

people?” This one has various answers.

The obvious one as you would gather from reading the items above

is if a very experienced CASEM MD keeps applying…..they will

always rank high. It makes sense. Especially if they actually get

selected to the Game they apply to. It simply keeps giving them

more experience. The existing Grid has limits in points per section.

Even if one has been on the HST for 10 Olympic Games, they have

maxed out a long time ago and cannot keep getting “more points”.

We are working on that with the proposed new Grid as well.

The other answer is related to the first part. If a very experienced

candidate keeps applying, they get a good chance to come up on

top. The CMO wants great MDs to work at the Games. The easy

answer is experienced candidates are good to have on the team.

Many CMOs have voiced their desire to mix some vast experience

with some with slightly less to get a good mix and mentor some

people in the higher level Games. If you were a CMO you also

want to have the right personalities working with you.

So how do new people get in?

There are methods within the individual applicant’s control. Keep

being involved in multiple local events, volunteer some time with

local teams, take courses. Do not hesitate to apply and take part in

lesser Games. The hierarchy is as follows: local simple sport

events, local multisport events, local national level events, Provin-

cial Games, Canada Games (this is a great one to get multisport

experience and a lot of networking……just a hint), FISU, Jeux de

la Francophonie, Commonwealth, Pan Ams, Parapan Ams, Youth

Olympics and Commonwealth and Olympics and Paralympics.

The other less evident method is experienced members should con-

sider not applying to some events to let new members get experi-

ence. This is a tough one and not within a less experienced appli-

cant’s control

CON’T FROM PAGE 4...

CON’T ON PAGE 6...

Is that last issue a problem? Well, it can be. The organization and competing athletes expect the “best medical team” available. It cannot be made up of rookies with no

mentors or experienced personnel. A mix is better. If no experienced member applies then the CMO can be left hanging with

difficult decisions.

This has been occurring more recently where the number of applicants was too low. At the Guadalajara Parapan Ams in 2011, there were

0 applicants. CASEM has never restricted the number of Games an individual can take part in. Some think this could be a development to

explore but it has always been left to the discretion of the member to decide if it’s time to take a break from applying.

Congratulations

&

Many see this as their ultimate goal. Although it is commendable to see many apply and volunteer their services for large events, it is im-

portant to note that experience is not only valuable but also required for such major events. If one refers to the progression mentioned above,

one sees the importance of being involved with many lesser events to gain experience before their application can be ranked higher among

their peers. We have seen members applying for Olympic Games who had less than a year of practice after receiving their Diploma of Sport

Medicine and no event experience at all. This would not be realistic.

I hope the above provides some insight and clears some thoughts about what is happening with Selection issues.

Volunteering is not an easy decision to make but if you are interested in being involved with the Health and Science teams at Major Games,

look for places to be involved locally and don’t hesitate to spend time at lesser events. You will meet great people, network like you wouldn’t

believe and gain valuable experience that will help you not only in your daily work but with future applications for bigger Games.

Please don’t hesitate to talk to me directly if you have more questions.

See you in Victoria!
