FAMP 709MA Family Medicine Sub-I-OHSU/St. Charles Health System- Madras Rural Track Program

Credits: 6
A four-week sub-internship in Family Medicine is available for medical students interested in a rural family medicine residency. The sub internship is an intensive, rigorous experience in which students will spend time on the inpatient floor at the St. Charles Madras Critical Access Hospital and at the St. Charles Madras Family Care Clinic. During their rotation, students will live in the rural community and explore the lifestyle of a rural physician. As much as possible, sub interns will be given opportunities to demonstrate skills at the level of an incoming intern. On inpatient service students will be responsible for closely following patients, managing their care under the guidance and supervision of faculty, and presenting their patients in morning rounds. In clinic, students will work with a faculty preceptor, seeing a wide variety of patients independently and observing or being observed by their preceptors during wellness exams, women’s health visits, disease management, sports medicine, behavioral health warm handoffs and more.
