Purpose
OSCEs use standardized patients and observed clinical encounters to offer students a 360-degree assessment from observing faculty, the patient and themselves. Feedback from trained standardized patients focuses on a feeling-based global humanistic grading rubric which offers students insight into how their interaction with patients leads to repeat visits and referrals; allows students the chance to learn what motivates patients to share their stories, feel comfortable and be open to medical plans needed to treat and diagnose their conditions; and gives hands-on experience in a safe learning environment.
