M25 Medicine 834ASNHC Clinical Mentoring0.0 Unit
Description:This elective is designed to develop the teaching and mentoring skills of our fourth-year medical students through clinic sessions at the Saturday Neighborhood Clinic. In addition, the elective will develop the ability of our fourth-year students to productively engage and present complex social issues through the development of a one-hour lecture. Three mentoring sessions will also occur. Each fourth-year student will pair with a preclinical (first- or second-year) student each session and then supervise that student throughout the clinic day. The fourth-year student will supervise and assist as the preclinical students completes the patient history and physical, presents the exam results to the physician, and writes the visit notes for multiple patients. The preclinical student will complete one patient note without assistance, which the fourth-year student will then thoroughly review, edit, and return to the preclinical student, along with constructive feedback regarding the preclinical student's general performance. The attending present at the SNHC will verify that the fourth-year mentor fulfilled the specified mentoring requirements. Additional practice sessions to review exam skills, note writing, and communication are optional and can be individually arranged between teams so the fourth-year mentor can assist the first-year student with personalized skills. Reading: (1 presentation) The fourth-years taking this elective will break into groups of 3-4. Each group will be responsible for presenting a 1-hour presentation on a topic related to "social determinants of health". There should be a case component to the presentation as well as a broader discussion. The presentations will be based on thorough research and should engage the broader context of the topic including the epidemiology, social and health ramifications, economics, interventions, et c. The presentation should include descriptions of potential solutions and innovation, where applicable.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
