The Clinical Skills Inventory (CSI) is a tool to help students
and community faculty shape a clinical experience that is
satisfying to both. As students, you know what your skills
are and what you are most interested in learning. This CSI
is not comprehensive of everything you will learn or experience
during year 03, but is intended to reflect common problems
you may address during your Family Medicine Clerkship. It
is not intended as a document of your experiences - those
should be recorded in your PDA database. Two general problem areas ***, including musculoskeletal and dermatological, are commonly seen in Family Medicine, and are therefore focus areas of learning for you.
Preceptors know the resources and limitations
of their particular practices, and have ideas about what
is important for students to learn. This inventory is
intended to facilitate a dialogue between the student
and preceptor to maximize your learning experience during
this rotation. Please discuss this checklist with your
preceptor during the first week of the clerkship, as you
address your "Learner Contract", and again at
mid-clerkship to help evaluate progress and plan further
learning.
1. Identify as "Focus
Area" those skills you hope to improve during this
clerkship. Your preceptor may also identify focus areas,
both at the beginning and mid-clerkship.
2. Identify your level of experience/comfort before clerkship,
mid- and end-clerkship.
