1University of Southern California School of Medicine, Los Angeles, USA.
Abstract:
Similar to the Residents Review Committee's "Essentials for a Residency Training Program," this article provides Educational Practice Guidelines for a required surgical clerkship. The Guidelines presented are ones that can be adopted by any department of surgery in the United States, but in some cases not without significant increase in resources and faculty effort. The 10 essential components provide an opportunity for intensive program evaluation of all medical student clerkship experiences.
