| Abstract | Background: The EM clerkship is an incredibly important component of a medical student's clinical education. It provides a unique learning environment and numerous clinical opportunities that are typically unavailable during other clerkships. There is no better clerkship to learn how to approach patients presenting with undifferentiated complaints. In addition, an EM rotation offers students the opportunity to learn assessment and stabilization principles for patients with acute illnesses and injuries, to develop basic procedural skills, and to acquire a clinical approach to the diagnosis and management of common patient complaints. Despite the numerous opportunities for clinical education that the ED offers, it can be a difficult place to learn due to the challenges of pace, acuity, and uncertainty of this environment. The EM clerkship is also important to decide EM is the right specialty for your career goals. |
