Abstract: 

The goal of this clinical skills session is for students to gain skills in working in teams during a particularly difficult situation: the team disclosure of medical errors.  There will be an encounter with a standardized patient (SP) acting as a family member, followed by feedback from the SP and for some students, a review of the recorded interview in a meeting with their mentors and mentor group.

Educational objectives: 

At completion of this case, the student will demonstrate effective team communication behaviors when:

  1. Discussing a medical error (by demonstrating four important principles),
  2. Planning for the disclosure (by demonstrating three important principles), and
  3. Conducting the disclosure (by demonstrating eight important principles).

The principles mentioned above are described in the online module.

Abstract: 

This module demonstrates the normal age-related changes in the musculoskeletal system and their clinical implications. A highlight of these modules are side by side comparisons of young and aged tissues with interactive slides and summary drawings which reinforce the main points on the histology slides. The curriculum is appealing to clinical learners as it is anchored in showing clinically relevant changes and the implications of these changes in older patients. The main audience is the pre-clinical first or second year medical student, but these could be used by other trainees to teach the basic science of aging.

Educational objectives: 

Learning Objectives for Musculoskeletal System module:

Identify the major aging associated changes in each of the following and describe the clinical implications of these changes:

  1. Muscle
  2. Tendons & ligaments
  3. Cartilage
  4. Bone
  5. Spine

Abstract: 

Assessing and treating gynecologic conditions is important in all decades of a woman's life.  Each decade of life presents a unique set of issues for women.  During the senior period of a woman's life, the conditions to assess can be nongynecologic in nature including osteoporosis, fall risk, memory and activities of daily living.  This video will help serve as a guide when screening the older adult female population for any issues related to aging.  If issues do exist, referral to a geriatric specialist may be appropriate for further evaluation.

Educational objectives: 

After reviewing the video, the learner should be able to:

1) to conduct a thorough gynecologic and nongynecologic history in the older adult female population such as osteoporosis, fall risk, memory and activities of daily living.
