During the POM sessions, students will be exposed to material that is truly foundational to the practice of clinical medicine. Topics covered will include: professionalism, ethics, patient-physician relationship and communication skills, medical interviewing and the clinical exam, clinical reasoning, biopsychosocial-spiritual context, and systems based practice. The co-Directors of each POM group will be assigned to the same small group throughout the academic year and are responsible for facilitating the assigned session of the day.
