Credentialing
Student credentialing and onboarding for clerkships that rotate through the St. Luke’s Health System are now handled via myClinicalExchange, a web-based platform. The Idaho WWAMI team will add the rotation dates to myClinicalExchange, and the St. Luke’s Health System team will then approve the rotation and review any onboarding documents within that system.
There will be a cost to create an account to use the program. You can submit for reimbursement from the GoWWAMI team.
All scheduling will continue be completed through the UWSOM’s registrar’s office, so you should not be making any changes to or requesting rotations in myClinicalExchange.
Housing
Student housing and travel is provided for required and Advanced Patient Care eligible clerkships only. If this clinical clerkship is taken as a required or Advanced Patient Care eligible course, students will be contacted by the Idaho WWAMI office. Students are responsible for confirming whether they WILL or WILL NOT need to stay in the WWAMI medical student housing in a timely fashion. Prior to accessing the housing students are required to complete the necessary paperwork and provide a check for damage deposit. If this clinical clerkship is taken as an elective course, students are responsible for arranging their own housing.
For any travel and/or travel reimbursement questions, please refer to the UWSOM WWAMI Student Travel Site or contact the GoWWAMI Team.
Schedule
We have an amazing variety of patient admissions and opportunities for peds subspecialty exposure. Mornings are spent in the hospital rounding with the peds team; those afternoons when not on-call, students will spend time in the outpatient clinic or covering the hospital. On-call rotations take place approximately every 5th day until 10:00PM in the hospital.
Sign-out occurs daily at 6:45AM. Didactics take place from 12:00PM – 12:45PM. Every Wednesday, a half-day conference with the Pediatrics Residency of Idaho takes place from 1:30PM – 5:30PM. Students have weekend days and holidays off.
Suggested readings list will be provided, plus patient-based reading.
