Curriculum

Social worker working with child and family during clinical visit

Trainee experience

Our curriculum has been designed to provide hands-on experience in an outpatient medical clinic setting. It is part of a training program within a set of comprehensive clinical services and multidisciplinary professional training. With supervised clinical social work experience in a primarily outpatient setting, there will be additional learning opportunities in the inpatient multidisciplinary setting.

Clinical training and rotations 

The fellowship program may include clinical rotations in the following areas: 

Transplant

Cancer center

Transplant inpatient

Palliative

Neuroscience

Advance care planning and research

Rotations will occur Monday through Friday and your schedule will be approximately 40 hours per week. Sequence will be determined by graduate school clinical rotation and availability of preceptors.

Fellows must participate in one hour of clinical supervision every two weeks.

Department and faculty

Faculty includes licensed clinical social workers in the section of social work and assistant professors in social work. Some of the staff are qualified supervisors and may also provide supervision as well as function as task supervisors.

Evaluation

An assignment for the fellow will be to develop an educational opportunity for staff.
