Our students’ clinical skills and professionalism are evaluated at least weekly by their faculty preceptors. At the end of the clerkship, the clerkship team meets with each faculty team to review evaluations submitted for each student and to discuss improvements the student has made through the course of the clerkship. All of this information is compiled by the clerkship office to create the summative evaluations. At the end of the clerkship, each student will also participate in two standardized patient (SP) cases known as the CCX exam. 20 minutes will be spent with the Standardized Patient

Our 4 week clerkship is a combination of inpatient, general practice and subspecialty experiences. We assign each student to a small team of physicians who assess student performance and provide feedback. Each student has an average of 30 half days of clinic experience over the course of the 4 weeks. Some schedules require students to round on their patients on weekends or nights. All schedules are set up based on physician clinical schedules.

In addition to gaining exposure to and understanding of the unique pathophysiology behind common pediatric diagnoses, each student will also come to understand the normal neurodevelopment achieved during childhood and adolescence.
