MEDE 7620 Clinical Medicine 3 + Ethics

6 SCH. This course is taught longitudinally during semester 3, with integration occurring within each system course. The goal of this course is to provide educational experiences that will help students develop diagnostic reasoning concepts and enhance the interviewing and physical skills learned in earlier clinical medicine courses. Small group sessions involving practical application of knowledge learned are an integral part of this course. In addition, students will participate in health promotion and ethics small group discussions and observe how community agencies support the health care system. During this course students will have the opportunity to participate in the delivery of health care in one of our family practice community preceptor offices. (Year 2, Semester 3)
