Course Information
Description
The Advanced Clinical Elective in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry is a four week clinical experience at Boston Children's Hospital on either the Inpatient Psychiatry Service or the Psychiatry Consultation Service. This rotation is designed for medical students typically in their fourth year, or highly motivated advanced third year students who have completed their core psychiatry clerkship and most of their other core clerkships. There is direct supervision of clinical work by faculty attendings and Psychiatry Fellows or Residents. Elective students attend classes in the core Child & Adolescent Psychiatry seminar series of the Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Residency Training Program. Performance evaluation includes direct observation of patient care, participation in seminars, review of documentation, presentation of a literature review on a selected topic or a clinical case report, and the demonstration of learning and clinical skills acquisition over the course of the elective.
