Warren Village Clinic for kids seeking pediatricians

Warren Village is a self-sufficiency housing program for approx. 100 single parents and their children. The Healthy Beginnings Clinic has been in service for six years in conjunction with Warren Village. This clinic was created and is run by medical students from the Univer. of Colorado School of Medicine and provides an opportunity for medical students to give basic pediatric care. The clinic is staffed by medical students under the supervision of licensed pediatricians who are members of the Department of Pediatrics faculty. The goal of the clinic is not to replace the serviceds of the primary care physicians but rather to provide health care for children while they are residents of Warren Village.

As preceptors, your responsibilities will include overseeing first and second year medical students, care of patients seen in the clinic during the evening and teaching students about pediatric patient care. The students should be responsible for hands on patient care under your supervision. This is one of the first opportunities for medical students to work with pediatric patients and your experience will be essential to the learning environment.
To participate, all physicians must be a pediatric with faculty or clinical faculty status at the University of Colorado. Malpractice will be covered through the University of Colorado. IF you would like to participate but do not have faculty status, we can assist you in obtaining clinical faculty status.
We appreciate your interest and assistance in this program. The clinic is open Wednesday evenings between 6:30 and 9:30 pm.

Send an email to the Hotmail address above and I'll put you in touch with them.
