GLHT 86001 Global Health Rotation (India)
This rotation will expose the student to medical care at a world-class facility in a developing country. The primary focus will be on teaching the student to rely on clinical skills and judgment in addition to technology available in that setting. Students will participate in all aspects of care of medical patients. This may include daily inpatient ward rounds and outpatient clinics, ICU and emergency room management of medical patients, and medical emergencies. There will be hospital-wide didactic teaching sessions involving all attendings and residents, didactic conferences, case presentations, and interactive sessions with attendings. Students may be exposed to disease problems not seen in the USA such as malaria, hydatid disease, typhoid, and tetanus.
