Hospital rounds all days of the week at Tomball Community Hospital. Timings
are roughly 9 a.m. to 2-3 p.m. Hospital rounds will be both in IM and Peds. The
students will be given the schedule at the start of the rotation. You may also
be asked to attend clinic in the hospital or community in sessions of 2-3 hours
a few times a week both in IM and Pediatrics. The experience will be
enriching. If students are interested, they can do Saturday hours as well.
Times are subject to change as per the attending’s schedule. You may round
on the General Medical Floor, ICU, CCU, or wherever the patients might be.
While participating as a member of the team, you will learn to interact with
diverse patients and perform detailed history taking and physical
examination, check labs and notes on the patient. Formulate a differential
diagnosis and an assessment and treatment plan for each patient under the
attending physician’s supervision and guidance. The students will follow up
on all patients under their care every day. They will also participate in
discharge planning and execution.
This is a unique learning experience for medical graduates who are
committed to becoming effective, successful residents. This clinical initiative
is designed to prepare foreign medical graduates (IMGs) for the US clinical
environment by providing them with hands-on clinical experience. You will
have the experience as a clinical learner under the supervision of a teaching
attending physician. At the end of your rotation, you may request a
performance-based letter of recommendation on Hospital letterhead.
