Chronic Care Clerkship Overview

Welcome to the Chronic Care Clerkship! If you plan to practice direct patient care, you will use on a daily basis the skills and knowledge you learn during this four-week rotation.

We firmly believe patient care becomes more efficient and rewarding when you use patient-centered communication and understand the particular needs of patients with chronic or end-of-life conditions.

This website provides information on the Chronic Care Clerkship goals and objectives, clinical and teaching schedules, assessment and grading, didactic resources and helpful links to broaden your educational experience.

Please take a moment to explore the different disciplines within Chronic Care.

Once registered for the course, students can expect to start receiving communications from the clerkship coordinator and/or assigned site(s) four to six weeks before the rotation begins.

If you have questions or require assistance, please call or email the clerkship coordinator Teresa Jewell at (206) 616-6345 or tejewell@u.washington.edu.
