“Medical school is a time of great transformation. In addition to learning the science of medicine, students must develop a core set of skills common to all physicians. One key element in this process is the sub internship (also known as the acting internship). The sub internship was developed out of necessity because of a shortage of interns during World War II. The sub internship has evolved into an integral component of medical school training…

While internship forms the backbone of graduate medical education, it remains a time of

The 4th year Sub-internship:

Course description

This rotation is intended to provide students with experience as interns in order to better prepare them for the coming year. Each sub-I/acting intern will function in the role of an intern with a resident and attending physician above them. Goals are to solidify and expand on the knowledge learned in the third year clerkship, and to further develop the skills that will be required during their internship and residency. All sub-Is will be placed either on a floor team or ICU team based on requests submitted prior to the start of the rotation by their medical school.

Course set-up

Sub-I Supervision

- Sub-Is are assigned to a team of 1 attending, 1 resident and 1-2 interns.

- All sub-Is are supervised by PGY2 or 3s.- All medical students and house staff perform patient care under

the supervision of the patient’s primary attending physician.- Any and all procedures done by a sub-I (other than IV’s or blood

draws once trained) must be directly supervised by a credentialed intern/resident/attending.

Floor Team

- Each team is comprised of 1 attending, 1 resident, and 2 interns. All sub-Is will act either as a 2nd or 3rd intern reporting directly to their resident.

- Patient turnover is at 7am daily in one of the conference rooms on the 5th floor. This is where your team will arrive to learn of

Page 9: Sub Internship Manual

Atlantic Health Overlook Hospital Sub internship Guide Book9

events on any of your old patients overnight, as well as to pick up new patients.

- Admitting call is from 7am to 9pm every fourth day. - Daily rounds occur generally 10-11:30am with the attending on

service Monday-Friday.

ICU/CCU Team

- Each team is comprised of 1 resident and 1 intern. All sub-Is will act as a 2nd intern reporting directly to their resident.

- Each team will round with the ICU attending from 7:30am to 8:45am daily except weekends. CCU rounds will be from 8:45am to 9:30am daily except weekends. Keep in mind the primary attending of record may not be the teaching ICU/CCU attending of the month.

- Patient turnover is at 7am daily in ICU staff lounge.- Admitting call is from 7am to 9pm every other day. One week is

devoted to nights admitting from 8:30pm to 9am. The non call day runs generally from 7am to 4pm.

- Medical Students are to stay with the day teams (i.e. you will pick up a new team each time your old team switches to nights). Under special circumstances students may be allowed to switch to nights with their team with prior approval from the clerkship director.

Responsibilities

Patient Care- Medical students are assigned to teaching patients by their

residents.- The floor team sub-I cap for total number of patients is 4. The

ICU team sub-I cap is 2. - On call the student cap for new admissions will be a total of 4

new patients maximum on the floors and 2 new patients maximum in the ICU.

- Medical students are responsible for performing a history & physical on each new patient. Your H&P can be placed in the chart, but should be cosigned by your resident and attached to their admission note.

- Medical students should write daily SOAP notes on all their patients to be cosigned and amended by their resident & their attending.

Page 10: Sub Internship Manual

Atlantic Health Overlook Hospital Sub internship Guide Book10

- Students may write orders on their patients if directly with their resident and all orders must be immediately signed by their resident.

- Students are not responsible for dictations summaries for any patient.

- Students are expected to be present during the day anytime their team is present – this includes weekends.

Basic Procedures

All procedures should be directly supervised by a medical resident or attending.

SPECIFIC LEARNING OBJECTIVES:A. KNOWLEDGE: Students should be able to define, describe, and discuss:

1. Key indications, contraindications, risks to patients and health care providers, benefits, and techniques for each of the following basic procedures:• Venipuncture• Blood culture• ABG• ECG• Nasogastric tube placement• Urethral catheterization• Peripheral intravenous catheter insertion• Throat culture• Digital rectal examination• Stool occult blood testing• Subcutaneous injection• Intramuscular injection• Wound culture• Dressing change• PPD placement

2. Alternatives to a given procedure.

3. The patient’s experience of the procedure.

B. SKILLS: Students should be able to demonstrate specific skills, including:

1. Obtaining informed consent, when necessary, for basic procedures, including the explanation of the purpose, possible complications, alternative approaches, and conditions necessary to make the procedure as comfortable, safe, and interpretable as possible.

Page 11: Sub Internship Manual

Atlantic Health Overlook Hospital Sub internship Guide Book11

3. Demonstrating step-by-step performance of basic procedures with technical proficiency.

4. Demonstrating proper sterile technique and body substance isolation procedures.

5. Appropriately documenting, when required, how the procedure was done, any complications, and results.

Advanced Procedures

The following procedures may be performed by medical students (at the discretion of the medical attending) with a credentialed resident or attending present:

• Arterial line• Lumbar puncture• Abdominal paracentesis• Arthrocentesis

All procedures must be documented in the patient’s chart with a procedure note which should include the supervising physician.

Students are not permitted to perform central lines.

Conferences

All sub-Is are encouraged to attend Chairman rounds, Auscultation sessions, H&P and didactic conferences when not conflicted with direct patient care responsibilities – however these are not required. Students on floor teams are required to attend daily resident lectures and noon report. ICU students are encouraged to come to these conferences when possible. Included in your packets should be a schedule for your rotation including conference times (see Appendix A).

Evaluations

Evaluations are a critical part in self & program improvement. All students will receive a composite formal evaluation at the end of their rotation. This will include evaluations & feedback from those you’ve worked with including attendings, residents, and interns.

Page 12: Sub Internship Manual

Atlantic Health Overlook Hospital Sub internship Guide Book12

All students will have an end of the clerkship feedback session with the course director. Please schedule this feedback session with the DOM medical clerkship coordinator in the Medical Education office during the first week of your rotation.

Students will be responsible for completing evaluations of all attendings, residents, and interns for which they’ve worked with for 2 weeks or greater. These evaluations are extremely important in improving our program at Overlook. All evaluations will be kept confidential with responses being forwarded to attendings & residents biyearly without student names. See Appendix E for copies of these evaluations.

Finally, each student is responsible for handing in a rotation survey at the end of the sub internship (See Appendix F). This is to be handed in no later than the Monday prior to finishing the rotation to the DOM medical student coordinator in the Medical Education office.
