Core Clerkship in Neurology

神经病学核心见习的总体目标是教授全科医生在实践中最可能遇到的神经系统疾病的识别和管理所需的原则和技能. 该实习向学生介绍神经病学的基本知识,向神经患者提供临床护理的基本要素,以及与伦理相关的基本概念, research and education in neurosciences. Students rotate through inpatient and outpatient clinical sites. Instruction occurs through direct patient contact, bedside teaching, 模拟和体检教学助理和学生会议.

PRECEDE Overview

NeuroPRECEDE(实习前教育练习)的目标是通过强调该学科的基本要素,为医学生的临床神经学经验做好准备. 重点放在发展和提高执行神经学检查所需的技能,以及介绍在任何临床环境中有价值的基本知识和原则,无论专业. Through small-group sessions, 互动/动手实习和参与讲座的顶级教师在部门, 学生学习的技能旨在提高神经病学临床见习经验.

通过互动实践和模拟课程来解决核心竞争力问题,例如:

  • The Lumbar Puncture Workshop
  • Neuro “Bootcamp” lecture series, comprised of The Abnormal Neuro Exam, Examining the Pediatric Neurology patient, and Movement Disorders
  • Clinical Reasoning in Neurology interactive online curriculum
