The psychiatry clerkship is designed to provide students with basic skills in psychiatric
diagnosis and treatment applicable to patients across all specialities, particularly those
in primary care practices. Students are assigned to a variety of in-patient and
out-patient experiences.
In addition, the approach to patient care in a chemical dependency program is observed by all students for two half-days during each block. Each student has an opportunity to observe at least four applications of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Attendance is expected at the weekly psychiatry grand rounds presentations and at the three weekly teaching seminars, which address a variety of general psychiatric topics.
