1 Specific Learning Objectives for the Neurology Below is a list of the specific neurology objectives (by topic) that we expect you to know by the end of the neurology rotation. The reading list is from Gelb Introduction to Clinical Neurology fourth edition, High Yield Neuroanatomy third or fourth edition by James D Fix, Harrison s Principles of Internal Medicine or from resources posted on Emerge GOALS FOR THE NEUROLOGY CLERKSHIP GOALS - The goal of the Third Year Neurology clerkship is to prepare the student to identify diseases and situations in which neurological evaluation is appropriate so that the student understands as a practitioner when neurological consultation is appropriate and when emergent neurological intervention is needed. Specifically, the overarching goals are to: 1. expose you to bread and butter neurology so you a) are comfortable identifying neurological issues in your field of interest and b) know when to refer to neurology 2. allow you to recognize and manage emergent issues in neurology 3. work on skills that are key to the practice of medicine, regardless of specialty most importantly learning to synthesize and not just gather data, and presenting in a succinct and organized fashion in both oral and written H&Ps 4. become proficient in the neurological exam 5. Allow you to explore the field of neurology to determine if it is an area of interest for you. 6. foster student growth in the areas of communication skills, practice-based learning, medical ethics and moral reasoning, professionalism and social and community context of health care NEUROLOGY CLERKSHIP OBJECTIVES PHYSICIANSHIP OBJECTIVES - Complementary to specific knowledge and skills objectives, students are expected to demonstrate ongoing growth in the area of interpersonal and communication skills, medical ethics and moral reasoning, practice-based learning and improvement and professionalism. During the neurology clerkship, the student will: Participate as members of a health care team and will effectively communicate with members of the team (clinical performance evaluation (CPE)).
