GMED G702 - Integrated Practice of Medicine V


Credits: 1

The Integrated Practice of Medicine (IPM) is a multi-year longitudinal module that prepares students for the multi-faceted aspects of clinical medicine including application of basic science knowledge, clinical proficiency in physical diagnosis, diagnostic testing and fundamental  therapeutic  procedures , patient interactions, population health, effective communication skills, behavioral considerations, team-based health care delivery, ethical issues, professionalism, life-long learning, research and evidence-based practice. The first half of the M3 IPM Curriculum, IPM-V is designed to facilitate the students’ transition into the real world of health care delivery as practicing professionals.  Building on clinical experiences via third-year clerkships, students discuss the importance and application of topics such as quality and risk management, medical-legal issues, advanced diagnostics, lifestyle medicine, and medical practice in the context of societal challenges. Proficiency in the maintenance of competency in basic and advanced procedural skills will be integrated into the curriculum throughout IPM-V. Student-led interdisciplinary grand rounds, revisiting the biomedical sciences and including the psychosocial and behavioral aspects of patient care are facilitated by interprofessional panels of content experts.
