PAS 7140 - Elective Rotation III

Students will complete their third of three (3) elective rotations in a medical or surgical specialty or subspecialty, assigned based on student strengths and weaknesses, preferences, goals, and availability. These elective rotations allow students to supplement their knowledge in fields of interest, strengthen clinical knowledge, and explore potential career paths. Students will apply didactic knowledge to the hands-on provision of patient care. Students are expected to integrate knowledge obtained during the first year of the PA program to take histories, perform physical examinations, suggest and interpret appropriate diagnostic studies, observe and perform clinical procedures, develop treatment plans, and counsel/educate patients regarding these plans under the supervision of their clinical preceptor.
