We are proud to announce this year’s winner of the EMRA/Rosh Review One Step Further Award goes to Dr. Kathryn Lupez of Carolinas Medical Center. The One Step Forward award is given to a resident who exemplifies the ideals of continuous learning and self-improvement, who takes it upon himself or herself to go “one step further” to improve a weakness or accelerate a strength. While there were many excellent candidates for this year’s award, Dr. Lupez stood out as someone who “takes it one step further” on a daily basis.

As a psychiatrist, I enjoy teaching PA students during their Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine clinical rotation. But recently, I noticed something odd. While my students were studying for their end of rotation exam using another Qbank provided by their program, the question and explanation seemed to reflect the old diagnostic criteria from psychiatry’s handbook of diagnosis, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). That’s not necessarily odd, in and of itself. But then it happened again. And again. For example, one explanation said that ADHD diagnosis needed symptoms present prior to age 7, but that was the old criteria from DSM-IV-TR (fourth edition, text revised version of the DSM). The newest DSM-5 (fifth edition) criteria sets the threshold to before age 12 instead.
