Humanism
• Research suggests that as students progress through medical school, med students become more cynical, with a resulting decline in patient centeredness.
• Hirsh--graduating from an LIC can give a future doctor a better grounding in the humanism necessary to her or his profession, Hirsh says.

Sample M3 CLIC Month
![Page 14: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Evaluations
• Monthly by the Preceptor
• Quarterly by the Clerkship Director
• Is this a good idea?
– Pros: Keeps the physicians focused
– Cons: May only see the student one time between evaluations
![Page 15: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Preceptors were paid!!
As long as evaluations received on time!
![Page 16: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Committee Thoughts
• Not enough time in Primary Care
• Teach or make RVU’s ??? Not enough time to teach.
• Not enough Administrative Support
• Not enough protected time to meet with students quarterly
• Not enough attendance at Faculty Development
![Page 17: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Thoughts continued
• Feedback has not been valuable.
• Less didactic time
• Too much time with the specialists.
![Page 18: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Summary of CLIC student narrative comments
![Page 19: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Strengths:
• Longitudinal experience with preceptors and patients• Opportunity to learn about all core disciplines from
very early in the M3 year• Great variety of outpatient experiences• Great variety of settings• Individualized curriculum via SDL time• 1:1 preceptor relationship• Enthusiastic preceptors• Opportunity for integration of knowledge and skills
across disciplines• Abundance of OR time
![Page 20: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Weaknesses:
• Not enough inpatient time to adequately prepare for M4 year and GME
• Inadequate exposure to patients with acute, serious illness
• Excessively narrow practice focus of preceptors in some disciplines (Neuro, Ob-Gyn, Peds)
• Mandatory plenary sessions; too “didactic”
• Drive time = wasted time
• Discontinuity in the outpatient venues due to Bursts
• Not enough true continuity patients
![Page 21: Cooper Longitudinal Clinical Clerkship for Primary Care](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041202/62509653c6a3246fb700fadc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Big Problems
• Not enough generalist
• Example:
• 1 student saw 60 aneurysm patients and 0 patients with Gall Bladder Disease.
• Instead of pediatric generalist one student is following the allergist.
