PACR 504 - Clinical Rotation 4 Description Clinical Rotations 1-10 are designed to provide the clinical student with supervised clinical practice experiences (SCPEs) that will reinforce medical knowledge gained in the didactic year of the MSPA program. SCPE experiences will allow the clinical student to refine clinical and technical skills through clinical reasoning, critical thinking, and problem-solving in clinical encounters. The clinical experience will further expose the student to evidence-based medicine through patient care experiences. The clinical experience allows the student to begin to develop into the professional role of the Physician Assistant and work with other members of the interprofessional health care team. The course is designed to provide the student the opportunity to achieve the program learning outcomes and course learning outcomes under the supervision of a clinical preceptor in the assigned field. The rotation may be conducted in one of the required disciplines: Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Women’s Health: OB/GYN, Pediatrics, General Surgery, Behavioral and Mental Health, and Integrative Health, or other various disciplines as Clinical Electives. Based upon the assigned clinical rotation, students will participate in the care of patients across the lifespan including infants, children, adolescents, adults, and/or elderly. Students will also participate in a variety of different aspects of medicine including acute, chronic, emergent, and/or preventative care and in various clinical settings including outpatient, inpatient, operating room, and/or emergency department.
