CLE 7300 - Secondary Intern Rotation

Student interns at NUNM health centers will continue to develop comfort with patient
care and develop professionalism through engaging with patient interactions through
completion of three core clinical rotations. Required core clinical rotations emphasize the
refinement of clinical skills, clinical reasoning and professional identity formation. A
major focus is using the history and physical exam to gather information to generate a
prioritized differential diagnosis and an evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic plan.
Each rotation includes an element designed to improve the student’s capacity for
interprofessional collaboration. Students rotate through three separate core clinical
rotations prior to advancing in clinic to a primary medical intern and after successfully
completing their Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) II. The three core clinic
rotations are: Primary Care, Nutritional Counseling, and Musculoskeletal Diagnosis and
Physical Medicine Management
