Leaves of absence (LOA) from medical school increase student stress and academic risk. We developed a course to support students returning to the clerkship year after a leave. The course was evaluated favorably by students and was reported to effectively prepare them for their clerkship year. We compared academic outcomes for course participants, students who took a LOA but did not participate in RICM, and traditional students. Planned LOA participants performed similarly to traditional students. However, students with unplanned LOAs faced higher academic risks and attrition, with course participation being associated with a reduction in post-clerkship delays in graduation.

医学院的请假会增加学生的压力和学业风险。我们开发了一门课程来支持请假后返回临床实习年的学生。该课程受到学生的好评,并据报道能有效地让他们为临床实习年做好准备。我们比较了课程参与者、请假但未参加RICM的学生和传统学生的学业成果。计划请假的参与者表现与传统学生相似。然而,意外请假的学生面临更高的学业风险和退学率,参加课程与减少临床实习后毕业延迟有关。
