Adjunct Clinical Skills Club

Physician, heal thyself. Teacher, teach yourself.

What We Do

The Adjunct Clinical Skills Club is a student-led training program. We practice procedures and emergencies likely to come up in clinical rotations — IVs, intubation, suturing, ACLS, OB delivery, full-team Code Blue scenarios — alongside what is studied in class.

The aim: Walk into rotations prepared, confident, and ready to contribute to patient care.

  • Hands-on proceduresIVs, suturing, intubation, central lines, chest tubes, and more.
  • Emergency simulationsCode Blue, mass casualty, OB delivery, capstone scenarios.

  • Team-based sessionsEvery event runs with assigned roles, like the real thing.
  • A pathway to teachMembers can grow into co-instructor and lead instructor roles, supporting future cohorts as they learn.
