Teaching will be more individualized, but you will also have to take more personal responsibility to ensure you have met the objectives. A solid ICM experience makes for good clinical clerks!

    10. Dress Wear your white coat and name tag NB: hospital ID card also required MUHC card days Dec 7 and 14th (am) Bring McGill ID for libraries No jeans/shorts No exposed abdomens Shoes Avoid perfumes/colognes etc.

    11. Behaviour Be courteous even if people arent courteous to you. You have to behave BETTER than others Everyone has a right to be treated politely - patients, cleaning staff, secretaries, your peers (and of course your teachers/attending staff)

    12. Punctuality Punctuality is considered part of professionalism. Students have failed rotations and been asked to leave the program because of being repeatedly late Medicine is an early profession check the start times for your rotations.
