Clinical Practice I

Catalog description

First, in a series of four required clinical practice courses. Classroom components will provide additional clinical opportunities in the form of simulation and are designed to deepen students' experience with critical thinking and reflection on their role in the healthcare team. Students will apply clinical skills concurrently taught in the curriculum to an actual patient base during supervised clinical experiences. Students are guided by a preceptor who will provide graded autonomy based on the student's previous experience and will evaluate the student's skills and abilities over the course of their clinical experiences.
