OCL 656 - Clinic Internship I

Credit(s): 2.38

At this stage of internship, DACM and MACM degree program students progress from working in pairs to assuming individual responsibility for greeting patients, explaining their role, conducting patient histories and exams, documenting all patient progress and treatment interactions, and proposing to the clinical supervisor a diagnosis and treatment plan for the patient. After the clinical supervisor examines the patient and reviews the diagnosis and treatment plan, the student is responsible for explaining the treatment plan to the patient and administering the treatment, which the supervisor observes, as necessary, to ensure proper treatment.
