The Role of The Hospitalist in the Clinical Education of Medical Students

Tyler Larsen et al. J Brown Hosp Med. .

Abstract

Hospitalist clinician-educators frequently work with medical students at the clinical level, but many early career educators may lack an understanding of how to effectively promote student learning and growth. We explore the role of hospitalists working with medical students in the clinical environment as it pertains to three overarching domains - clinical skills, systems-based healthcare, and career mentorship.

Keywords: Internal Medicine clerkship; hospitalist; medical education; medical student clerkships; undergraduate medical education.
