Students will participate in a four-week stroke acting internship that will involve the care of hospitalized patients with acute stroke. The main venue of participation will be the inpatient stroke service where students will take primary responsibility for patients, at the level of an intern. They will also assist with stroke alerts and participate in the education of clerkship students on the service. Students will also have the opportunity (if desired) to see patients in the outpatient setting, as well as to participate in the acute endovascular treatment of stroke. Students will also attend the weekly multidisciplinary cerebrovascular conference and fellow-led didactics.
