The Teaching of Occupational Health within a Clinical Presentation Curriculum

Abstract

Prior to 1996, the taching of occupational health at the University of Calgary was in three 4-hour blocks within the Adult Lifestyles section of the Family Course. With the changes in curriculm to a clinical presentation model, blocks of time within the lecture schedule were no longer available. the challenge was to integrate the teaching of occupational health into the clinical presentations of several different courses over the first two years of the curriculum.
