CCHM Clinical Training Expectations, Forms and Best Practices Webinar

The on-line webinar course covers the following:
-
Introduction to CCHM Clinical Training
-
The Importance of Informed Consent, Privacy and Confidentiality and Record Keeping

CCHM Expectations for Case Analyses Submissions for initials and follow ups

Communicating With an Externship Supervisor
Evaluation:
The understanding of the material in this webinar will be shown in the quality of the case analyses for the Internship and Externship portions of the CCHM Clinical Training.
4. Internship (Observational) Clinical Training
This portion of the program includes observation of 4 initial patient cases taken by a master homeopath (students can choose to do this live or by video). Students are to complete a full case analysis for each of these 4 patients to demonstrate their case analysis abilities and will be guided by a supervisor with written instructions for improvement before beginning their Externship Clinical Training. A supervisor may request additional video case observation and case analyses completion if students seem to need more experience before beginning with their private patients. An additional fee of $50 per patient video is to be paid by the student if this becomes necessary.
Evaluation:
4 clinical case write ups for observed internship patients following the CCHM Case Analysis Guidelines
5. Externship (Hands-on and Supervised) Clinical Training
This portion of the program includes eight (8) initial patient visits and eight (8) follow-up visits. These consultations may be completed live, by phone, or online using a platform such as Skype or Zoom. There is flexibility to accommodate variation based on the College of Homeopaths of Ontario’s review of each individual’s unique situation. The student’s patients will pay a nominal consultation fee directly to the student’s supervisor ($50+HST = $56.50 for initial consultations and $30+HST = $33.90 for follow ups). CCHM may be able to refer patients to some students depending upon the demand. Ultimately though, the responsibility for securing patients rests with the student.
Evaluation:
Students will submit case write ups for initial and follow up consultations for each of the student’s live patients following the CCHM Case Analysis Guidelines and will be graded accordingly.
