goleafsgochris Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Derm, path, neuro, opthal, plastics, rads are IMO the most epic fields in medicine and you really dont get to experience them in significant ways (if at all) in clerkship.

peachy Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 1. Ask the nurses to teach you stuff. It's very much appreciated. 2. Help them do some work. If they're making the bed, help them. Don't just stand there. 3. Buy them coffee. On the theme of getting along with nurses, learn their names! Everybody likes it when you make an effort to treat them like a person. Great tips in this thread about clerkship. I think the most important is to be as enthusiastic and cheerful as you can be, as often as you can be. It's not as easy as it sounds, but it goes an awfully long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokezero Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Lol @ octals....as a current RN working in emerg, just want to comment and say that all of the residents and medical students (most are from U of T) I have met so far have been super nice, humble, cooperative, helpful and easy to get along with.
