UVA SOM Clinical Portfolio

• The narrative should be written for a knowledgeable but non-expert audience.
• Limit the narrative to 2 pages. Less is better.
• Be consistent in formatting, font and style throughout the document.
• The clinical portfolio should complement the CV and not replicate it. The CV has the content and the clinical portfolio provides the context. The referee letter writers will not receive the research, teaching or clinical portfolios. Information that you feel is important for the referees should be in the CV and highlighted in the Personal Statement.
• To obtain Press Ganey patient satisfaction scores for your promotion and tenure portfolio, please contact your department P&T coordinator. They can provide you with your Press Ganey report or submit a request to the Patient Experience Office for the scores. The Patient Experience Office would like departments to request Press Ganey reports for all of their P&T candidates at one time. They will provide Press Ganey data tailored for P&T. To obtain your own Press Ganey data for informational purposes, please contact the Patient Experience Office directly: PatientExperience@uvahealth.org
• Avoid acronyms and abbreviations unless in common use. If you use acronyms or abbreviations, spell out, define or explain at the first use. Avoid lingo and only use terms that can be found by a search engine with the intended meaning.
• Figures and diagrams to present productivity and patient satisfaction scores are helpful to the reviewers.
• Updates of this information, especially manuscripts accepted for publication and grants funded, should be submitted to the Dean’s Faculty Affairs and Development Office while your P&T case is under review (from October to March).
• Sample portfolios from previous P&T candidates are available in SharePoint.
