Students participate in the care of critically ill patients in intensive care settings ranging from pediatrics to medical, surgical, and adult units. The focus is on the management of multisystem disease, and the treatment of respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, and hemodynamic compromise.

Students continue to check-in with their patient and advocate for them with the healthcare team. During this time, students will prepare a summary of the patient¿s conditions and the status of their care to communicate important aspects of their care for the next team member as the student prepares to graduate.

ACEs are 4-week clinical rotations during which students develop advanced clinical skills as they take on increased responsibilities for the evaluation and management of patients. Students are integrated as members of the healthcare team, to meet patients' needs. Students exercise critical thinking as they develop treatment plans under supervision and receive feedback in preparation for day one of residency.

This required rotation provides students an opportunity to evaluate undifferentiated patients in the emergency department (ED). Students apply history taking and physical exam skills learned during Foundations of Clinical Medicine (FCM) and the third-year clerkships to an acute care setting.

There are 16 rotations between the end of the core clerkships and graduation. Students must earn 40 elective credits in addition to the required 16 credits of the Bedside to Community, Advanced Clinical Elective, Emergency Medicine, Critical Care Medicine, and Intern Readiness courses.

Bedside to Community (B2C) examines the structure, function, and underlying health policies that define the United States healthcare system in order to enhance medical students' understanding of the elements that shape patient care today and in the future.
