DWIHN recognizes that clinical rotations are an integral part of medical education, as it allows students to apply classroom knowledge to clinical practice. Clinical rotations allow students to develop important clinical skills and to practice them in a safe and controlled environment. Clinical rotations also provide medical students with the opportunities to encounter variables and nuances not covered by classroom material. By gaining this experience, students become better prepared to handle similar cases as medical professionals in the future. Overall, clinical rotations are an essential part of the medical education process.
