PED 4665 Forward Operating Pediatrics
This rotation is a mixed Pediatric inpatient and outpatient experience in a forward deployed hospital. It exposes you to a summary of all the areas you experienced in your clerkship, but you experience the constrained environment regarding resources and sub-specialists encountered overseas. This is a great month to brush up on those Pediatric skills that you may need in the deployed or emergency room environment, as well as understand the challenges faced when interacting with health systems outside of the US.
