Details
Catalog description: This flexible rotation is designed to allow medical students who become new parents (i.e., birth, adoption, or foster) or are in the role of a caregiver to another child or adult (e.g., elder care, long-term care, rehabilitative care, etc), to spend additional time learning from and benefiting from their experience as a caregiver.
Eligibility Requirement: Students may sign up for this course if they have a child who was born during medical training for whom they are providing the majority of the care. Or if there is a child of any age or adult of any age for whom they are acting as the primary caregiver during the time of the rotation. For example, if a loved one is hospitalized and the student is going to the hospital to provide parent/family support daily, but not if a child is in school or daycare for the majority of the day.
