Third year students attend orientation workshop at the Clinical Academic Campus at Kelowna General Hospital
Starting in the fall of 2013, the UBC Southern Medical Program’s (SMP) inaugural class will begin their third year clinical training rotations at either Royal Inland Hospital, Vernon Jubilee Hospital, Kelowna General Hospital, or Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital.
To help prepare for the steady influx of SMP students, 20 third year UBC medical students from across the distributed MD Undergraduate program are beginning full-year rotations at these hospitals this September. Rotations at these sites are a direct result of the successful partnership between the UBC Faculty of Medicine and Interior Health, helping to deliver medical education in communities throughout the BC Interior.
Students are attending a 3-day orientation workshop at the Clinical Academic Campus at Kelowna General Hosptial and the Reichwald Health Sciences Centre at UBC’s Okanagan campus.
