assistive reading devices, or restructured rotations. Please note that as<br />

our postgraduate medical learners do not pay the student services fee,<br />

the services of the University’s Accessibility Services Office are not<br />

available to them. However, the Faculty of Medicine’s <strong>Postgraduate</strong><br />

<strong>Medical</strong> <strong>Education</strong> Office works with Program Directors to facilitate case<br />

communication and meetings, assist in coordination of accommodation<br />

requests, and find resources. For medical residents in programs<br />

accredited by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada<br />

and the College of Family Physicians of Canada, extra care must be<br />

taken in formulating an accommodation plan to ensure the specialty<br />

training requirements for certification are met.<br />

Accommodation is a shared responsibility. Everyone involved, including<br />

the medical trainee, should co-operate in the process, exchange relevant<br />

information, and explore accommodation solutions together.<br />
