The clinical education program is focused on developing professional skills and study habits that promote learning and sustained knowledge. We recognize the importance of on-going professional enrichment opportunities through education. Core curriculum and elective rotations are designed to give students basic medical knowledge in diverse clinical settings. Unlike most rotations, where observation is the basis for the rotation, here you will be hands-on with most rotations. During an inpatient medical teaching service, students take primary responsibility for the evaluation and management of patients under the supervision of a resident and/or faculty member. Students get direct contact with attending faculty and work with Interns and Residents in patient care.
Housing is available on a first come, first-served basis. The student house is conveniently located across the street from the hospital.
When you arrive at Heart of Lancaster Hospital, enter via the ambulatory Emergency Room Entrance, which is open 24/7. Identify yourself to the ER Registrar, as a medical student. Ask them to page security for your key.
No ID - No Housing. The security guard will supply the key to your room at the Student House, which is located across the street from the Hospital. Please read the instructions inside the key envelope regarding orientation.
