Basic Clinical Skills Workshops

These workShops introduce students to fundamental clinical skills such as patient history taking, physical examination, vital sign measurement, and communication skills.

Simulation Training

Simulation-based training allows students to practice clinical scenarios in a controlled environment using lifelike mannequins or standardized patients. This helps students develop skills in decision-taking, diagnosing, and managing various medical conditions while also honing teamwork.

Procedural Training

Students learn how to perform common medical procedures under the guidance of experienced clinicians. This may include techniques such as venipuncture, intravenous cannulation, suturing, airway management, and urinary catheterization.

Interprofessional Education

Collaborative learning experiences with students from other UAG healthcare disciplines, such as nursing, nutrition, and physical therapy, help foster teamwork and prepare students for interdisciplinary patient care.

Clinical Rotations

Experience real-world healthcare scenarios through our clinical rotations, where students actively apply their acquired skills in diverse medical settings including hospitals, outpatient clinics, and community health centers.

Prepare for the next phase of training with confidence through our OSCE sessions. These examinations are a vital component in evaluating your clinical competence and readiness for advanced responsibilities. Feedback from faculty helps students identify areas for improvement and track their progress over time.

 

Program Overview

The CSD Mentoring Program is a pioneering initiative designed to empower first and second-year students on their journey toward clinical proficiency. Launched in January 2023, the program is committed to cultivating a culture of mentorship and support within our medical community.

The CSD Mentoring Program extends an invitation to high-performing students to serve as mentors and assistants, contributing significantly to their peers' development.
