Students believe that combining neurology and psychiatry clerkships is not conducive to in-depth learning of each discipline, they did not see faculty adopting an integrated clinical approach, but they believe that making connections between neurology and psychiatry is beneficial for effective patient care.
Objective To explore student perceptions of the feasibility of neurology and psychiatry clerkship integration, including clinical education and competency evaluation, as there has been a call to improve undergraduate medical education integration of the disciplines to better develop physicians that can address nervous system disorders. Method Via a constructivist grounded theory approach, we carried out 5 focus groups in 2016-2017 with 28 medical students who completed both independent clerkships. Investigator triangulation was used with iterative interpretation comparisons, and themes were identified using constant comparative analysis. Results Three major themes arose: (1) combining the clerkships was not favorable as students need sufficient time to delve deeper into each discipline; (2) students did not observe an integrated clinical approach by faculty; (3) there is positive value to making links between neurology and psychiatry for effective patient care. Conclusions Students emphasized the importance of making stronger links between the 2 disciplines for their learning and to improve patient care; however, they did not observe this clinical approach in the workplace. Students perceived that integration of neurology and psychiatry clerkships should occur via increased affinity of the complementary discipline by trainees and faculty in each specialty.
