Doctoring Threads Overview
The seven doctoring threads create opportunities for students to obtain the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to be successful clinicians and are incorporated into all three phases of the curriculum.
Thread content is deliberately integrated across all courses and clinical experiences allowing for spaced repetition.
Students will receive timely feedback to track progress on the competencies associated with each thread.
