THE STORY OF THE CREATION OF THE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE History of Hofstra University, North Shore - LIJ Health System & the School of Medicine Hofstra University and North Shore - LIJ Health System are partners in the establishment and operation of the Hofstra North Shore - LIJ School of Medicine. The School of Medicine is built upon the strong clinical and graduate medical education programs of the Health System and the robust research and academic programs of Hofstra University and the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research at North Shore - LIJ Health System. A brief history of each of the partners and of the School’s development is included below. History of the University: Founded in 1935 as a college affiliated with New York University (NYU), Hofstra separated from NYU in 1939 and was granted an absolute charter a year later. With the approval of the New York State Board of Regents, Hofstra became Long Island’s first private university in 1963. In 1966, the Board of Regents authorized Hofstra University to offer doctoral degrees and, in 1973, Hofstra was granted a Phi Beta Kappa charter. Today, almost 11,500 students learn from more than 500 full-time faculty members on a 240-acre campus. Hofstra faculty members are leading scholars in their disciplines. Each semester, students choose from approximately 2,000 courses within 140 undergraduate and 150 graduate programs. The University, since its inception and central to its mission and core values, has committed itself to excellence in teaching grounded in the liberal arts. At Hofstra, teaching is intertwined with research and

Page 15


scholarship. Indeed, the teaching and mentoring of students is informed and enhanced by the faculty’s scholarship and publications. This commitment extends to the University’s graduate programs. Today, ninety percent of full-time faculty members hold the highest degrees in their field, and many have awards and accomplishments to their credit. From Guggenheim Fellows to Emmy Award winners to National Endowment for the Humanities and National Science Foundation grant recipients, faculty members pursue excellence in their academic disciplines while maintaining a commitment to teaching and mentoring their students. In addition to the School of Medicine, the following schools comprise Hofstra University: the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Frank G. Zarb School of Business, Maurice A. Deane School of Law, School of Communication, School of Education, Honors College, School of Health Sciences and Human Services, School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and School for University Studies. Recently, the University has added programs in health professions, including Master’s programs in Public Health and Medical Physics. History of the Health System: North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System (North Shore - LIJ) was formed in 1997 with the merger of North Shore Health System and Long Island Jewish Medical Center. It is the nation’s third-largest, nonprofit, secular healthcare system. In the New York metropolitan region, North Shore - LIJ is the largest provider of healthcare services, with 16 hospitals, three long-term care facilities, a major research center (The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research), the area’s major home-care, hospice and ambulance providers, and a network of approximately 400 ambulatory sites. The Health System’s five major tertiary teaching hospitals include Lenox Hill Hospital (LHH) in Manhattan (652 beds), North Shore University Hospital (NSUH) in Manhasset (804 beds), Staten Island University Hospital’s (SIUH) North Campus (714 beds), Southside Hospital in Bay Shore (341 beds), and Long Island Jewish (LIJ) Medical Center in Queens (983 beds), whose campus is also home to two of the three free-standing specialty hospitals: the Cohen Children’s Medical Center of New York (164 beds) and The Zucker Hillside Hospital (236 beds), a psychiatric hospital. The third and newest specialty hospital, South Oaks (215 beds), is a comprehensive, full service psychiatric facility serving the south shore of Long Island. The Health System’s variety of programs and services facilitate the coordination and management of patient care across the continuum. The hospitals and other healthcare providers in the Health System annually care for more than 285,000 inpatients, provide over 133,400 ambulatory surgery procedures, deliver 27,200 babies, accommodate approximately 674,000 emergency department visits, provide over one million ambulatory care visits, and have 4 million patient contacts, including over 505,000 home health visits. Given the location of the Health System facilities, its patient base comes from a broad geographic region, which encompasses urban to suburban landscapes and represents a full spectrum of racial, cultural, and socioeconomic diversity. The Health System’s diagnostic, therapeutic, and prevention services generate annual revenue of $6.7 billion. The Health System has more than 2,500 full-time physicians and approximately 7,000 community physicians that comprise its medical staff, employs more than 10,000 nurses, and has a total workforce of more than 46,000. It is the largest employer on Long Island and the third-largest private employer in the City of New York.

The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research, a free-standing research institute established by North Shore - LIJ in 1999, is home to over 500 scientists and investigators, many of whom also serve as faculty in the School’s Department of Molecular Medicine. The Feinstein Institute receives more NIH funding than 50 of the 137 US medical schools, and ranks in the top 6th percentile of all research institutions that receive NIH support. The Feinstein Institute is home to leaders in translational and clinical research who consistently receive national and international peer recognition for their scholarship and mentorship, as manifested through honors, awards and publications in the leading high impact biomedical journals. The Elmezzi Graduate School of Molecular Medicine, operated by The Feinstein Institute, is chartered by the Board of Regents of the State University of New York to confer doctoral (PhD) degrees to individuals who already have an MD degree. The Health System directly sponsors 120 accredited graduate medical education (GME) programs and trains more than 1,500 medical residents and fellows annually. However, North Shore - LIJ Health System’s commitment to teaching and learning extends beyond its GME programs. The Health System’s Continuing Medical Education (CME) program encompasses over 120 conferences, regularly scheduled series, and enduring materials, and provides approximately 2,000 hours of certified CME to approximately 6,000 physicians and other health professionals each year. In 2007 and again in 2013, the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) awarded North Shore - LIJ Health System with a six-year “Accreditation with Commendation”, the highest award status available to a CME provider. To facilitate integration across the educational continuum, the School’s Associate Dean for Graduate Medical Education also serves in the role of Chief Academic Officer in the Health System. The Health System is nationally recognized as a leader in developing and investing in the skills and continuing education for its staff and employees. In 2002, North Shore - LIJ launched the Center for Learning and Innovation (CLI), the largest “corporate university” in the healthcare industry. CLI is dedicated to creating a world-class learning organization that provides continuous learning opportunities for staff to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to support the Health System’s strategic patient care and business goals. One innovative CLI program is the Patient Safety Institute (PSI), a medical simulation laboratory that features PC-based, interactive, high fidelity, digitally-enhanced mannequins to help physicians, nurses, medical students, and other healthcare practitioners diagnose and manage clinical problems without risk to real patients. The largest in the Northeast, the simulation center occupies a new 45,000 square-foot facility. Development of the Medical School: In 2006, the Association of American Medical Colleges, citing population increases, a doubling between 2000 and 2030 of the number of citizens over the age of 65, and an aging physician workforce, recommended that medical school enrollment be increased by 30 percent by 2015. By this time, the University and the Health System each had reached a rapid-growth stage of development at which collaborating to develop a nationally renowned medical school became a highly attractive and advantageous endeavor. Aligned in their visions for their institutions, Hofstra University President Stuart Rabinowitz and North Shore - LIJ Health System President/CEO Michael Dowling began to discuss the advantages of collaborating to create an innovative school of medicine. The two institutions established the Hofstra North Shore - LIJ School of Medicine to reflect the true partnership between the two entities, which was initially referred to as the Hofstra University School of Medicine in partnership with North Shore - LIJ Health System. This unique partnership brought together two outstanding institutions, ensuring that the medical school, from the outset, would have excellent

Page 17


clinical training opportunities, research opportunities, and academic infrastructure. Hofstra, with its distinguished schools of law, business, liberal arts and sciences, communication, education, and health and human services, provides its accomplished faculty, several of whom hold joint appointments in the medical school and in another school in the University, and an existing admissions and student services infrastructure, as well as the campus on which the medical education building is located. The Health System provides a first-class group of hospitals, healthcare facilities, and research institutions, and some of the nation’s most respected physicians and researchers. On March 27, 2008, with the approval of their respective boards, Hofstra University and North Shore LIJ Health System entered into a formal agreement that established the School of Medicine, the first allopathic medical school in Nassau County and the first new medical school in the New York metropolitan area in more than 35 years. After a formal search, Dr. Lawrence Smith, nationally recognized for his leadership in medicine and medical education, was appointed as Founding Dean of the School of Medicine. Dr. Smith had served as the Chief Medical Officer of the North Shore - LIJ Health System since September 1, 2006, and has continued, as Dean, in the position of Physician-in-Chief and Executive Vice President. By holding a leadership role in both the University and the Health System, Dr. Smith facilitates a unified approach to creating a successful partnership, providing innovative leadership, and ensuring the seamless integration of classroom and clinical experiences. In June 2010, the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) granted Preliminary Accreditation to the School of Medicine. Also, in June 2010, the School of Medicine officially opened its initial building and on August 1, 2011, the School welcomed its inaugural class. In June 2013, the School of Medicine received Provisional Accreditation from the LCME and began construction on the expansion of the campus of its medical education center. The new facility, scheduled for completion in early 2015, will increase the size of the main education site by over 60,000 square feet.

THE MISSION, VISION, AND VALUES OF THE SCHOOL OF MEDICINE Mission Statement The School of Medicine, in a culture of community, scholarship, and innovation, is dedicated to inspiring diverse and promising students to lead and transform medicine for the betterment of humanity. Vision Statement The School of Medicine aims to establish itself as a revered institution of higher medical education by means of accomplishing the following visionary objectives: • To be a premier "Millennial Medical School" • To be a major contributor to the redefining of medical education • To have positively changed the University, North Shore - LIJ Health and the community • To have improved the health of the region Values Our values guide and shape the development of our school. It is our commitment to these values that will distinguish us and ensure that our curriculum appropriately addresses the needs of our learners and provides the experiences and mentorship necessary for the transformation of our students into caring

Page 18


and excellent physicians who embody, and will be recognized by, these values in their professional lives. The following ten values guide the School of Medicine: • • • • • • • • • •

Community Scholarship Innovation Learning Humanism Diversity Professionalism Patient Centeredness Reflection Vision

Community We will establish a culture of community that will have a transformative role in the health of the public. We are committed to educating future physicians to embrace responsibility for the health of their communities, and to be activists who advocate at the local, regional, and national level for the best care for patients and their community. Fulfilling this value will be an important metric by which we will demonstrate our success as an institution. Scholarship We embrace a culture of broadly defined scholarship and excellence, supported by academic recognition of and investment in our faculty and students. We will establish and nurture this culture by aligning the goals of our school with those of our faculty and students. Our students will learn how to inextricably link their scholarly work with their success as physicians. Innovation We will actively encourage collective, creative energy that, when used wisely, will move our institution forward. We will promote and reward creativity, leadership, and the courage to experiment. We will be intolerant of those who accept the status quo. We will foster a learning climate that intentionally pushes people out of their comfort zone and encourages a willingness to experiment. We will embrace change and cultivate creative tension in the spirit of progress and improvement. Learning We value as pre-eminent the process and complexity of learning and will organize our school as a learning community that respects and supports the individual learning needs of our students to ensure their success. We value learning over teaching and will continuously seek to develop the skills necessary for our faculty to nurture the learning of our students and the entire community. We will celebrate the involvement of our students as they help shape the future health of our community. Our learning community will be a respectful, inclusive, collaborative environment where students, faculty and University learn and grow together. Humanism We recognize that only through a comprehensive understanding and appreciation of the human condition will we successfully develop and nurture a culture and community of physicians who will care for themselves, their patients, and their colleagues with compassion, tolerance, respect and empathy.

Page 19


This commitment to a curriculum that recognizes, teaches, and rewards humanism enables us to support a culture and environment truly dedicated to healing and promoting health. Diversity We are committed to creating and supporting a diverse and inclusive learning community. We will foster a personal understanding of personal differences so that we may recognize the role of bias and prejudice emanating from these differences. The inclusive learning community, diverse patient care experiences, and supportive reflection will promote the ability to recognize and value the strengths of diversity in our community. Professionalism We are committed to fostering the personal transformation of our students into physicians through a thoughtful and appropriate admissions process, careful mentoring program, appropriate reward system, and a curriculum embedded in the student doctor-patient relationship. We believe that the virtues and behaviors that characterize a good doctor will redefine the personal identity of each student. We believe this transformation is a learned, continual process that must be thoughtfully designed, evaluated, and role-modeled to be successful. Patient-Centeredness “Putting the patient first” is the organizing principle of the school. This value will create a culture of trust that fosters safe, high quality, ethically principled, humanistic care, and we welcome transparency and public evaluation of our standards and outcomes. In all decisions that require prioritization, the patient’s best interest will always be the core principle. Our ability to truly “put patients first” while being just stewards of our society’s resources emanates from this trust. Reflection We are committed to embedding in all of our learning experiences the time and skills necessary to consciously examine, interpret and understand the thoughts and feelings that emanate from intense patient encounters. Through this process of mentored self-reflection and assessment, we ensure the development of a true learning and professional community capable of nurturing the transformation from student to physician. Vision We will foster the courage and intellectual climate to see beyond “what is”, and we will develop the leaders to take us there. We pledge an unwavering commitment to prepare, adapt and lead our school and community toward achieving the goal of transforming health care for the betterment of humanity.

1. Application Process The School of Medicine participates in the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). The review of completed AMCAS applications begins in July for the class entering in the fall of the following year. The deadline for receipt of the AMCAS application is December 1st. Students are notified via email within two weeks of the School’s receipt of a verified application from AMCAS. Once the application is processed, applicants eligible based on preliminary screening criteria, and those who request a secondary application despite not meeting the School’s published preliminary screening criteria, are instructed on how to complete and submit the School’s supplemental (also known as secondary) application. Application materials include: • •

• •

A complete AMCAS Application, includingMedical College Admission Test (MCAT) scores not older than three years at the time of application and official transcripts from all post-secondary schools attended. A premedical committee report. If the student’s school does not have a premedical committee, students may submit three individual letters of recommendation: two letters from individual professors (at least one in science) and one letter from a non-academic (included with the AMCAS application). A completed Supplemental Application. A $100.00 application fee. Students who are eligible for an AMCAS fee waiver/reduction through the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) Fee Reduction Program may request a waiver/reduction of the School’s application fee (instructions are included with the supplemental application).

Applicants are responsible for ensuring that all supplementary application materials are submitted to the Office of Admissions. The deadline for completed applications, including all supplemental materials, is December 31st (allowing for processing time at AMCAS and at the School of Medicine). 2. Application Review and Invitation to Interview Once the Office of Admissions receives a completed application, including all supplemental materials, the applicant is notified via email and the School begins to review the application materials. Leaders at the School of Medicine who are not involved in either the interview or Committee voting process comprise the screening committee. Completed applications are screened for non-academic applicant attributes, including healthcare and non-healthcare-related interests, volunteer and work experiences, extracurricular activities, earned honors and awards, travel experiences, hobbies, and other factors deemed appropriate by the Screening Committee to determine those applicants who will be invited for interview. The School aims to interview applicants who are the best match for the program and exemplify the high standards of the School. The Screening Committee determines competitiveness for admission based on aptitude and suitability for a career in medicine. The Office of Admissions invites selected applicants for an interview. Once an applicant schedules an interview, the Office sends the candidate details of the interview day, along with information about travel and accommodations. Interviews are scheduled from October through early March.

Page 22


3. Interview Day The interview is a day-long program that starts with a casual continental breakfast led by the Dean, the Vice Dean/Dean for Academic Affairs, or the Dean for Medical Education. The applicant has two 45minute, personalized structured interviews with members of the Admissions Committee. Each interviewer completes a candidate evaluation to be considered along with other admissions materials by the Admissions Committee. The interview day also includes a tour of the medical school facility by the current medical students, a virtual tour via video of the North Shore - LIJ Health System and the Center for Learning and Innovation, a presentation on student life by the Associate Dean for Student Affairs, a presentation on financial aid by the Director of Financial Aid, and question and answer sessions throughout the day. Lunch is an informal gathering and opportunity for the applicants to mingle with each other, as well as with matriculated School of Medicine students. 4. Admission Selection and Notification In selecting applicants for admission, the Committee considers, among other criteria: • • • • • • • • • • • •

Undergraduate and graduate academic performance and GPA Rigor of undergraduate study, including the university and academic major Honors and awards MCAT scores Extracurricular activities, including community service, leadership roles and unique accomplishments Capacity to contribute diversity to the educational environment Employment and research experience Demonstrated commitment to a future career in medicine Personal statement describing his or her personal, educational and social backgrounds, and response of the applicant to personal challenges Character traits, including honesty, integrity, leadership, team work, empathy, maturity, emotional stability, creativity and self-direction Ability to communicate with others Perseverance through adversity

Matriculation is achieved by the applicant accepting the offer and terms and conditions of admission, as well as providing the required $100 deposit to the School of Medicine within the stated two-week deadline. Decision turn-around time is shortened for acceptances offered after June 1st. If the student matriculates, the deposit is applied to tuition. If the applicant withdraws before May 15th, the deposit is refunded. Matriculation becomes official only after the student has completed all admission requirements and has met the technical standards for admission defined by the School. Applicants placed on the wait list are updated regularly. Applicants denied admission are notified via email.

EXPENSES AND FINANCIAL AID Tuition

Tuition Rebate and Refund Policy Financial Aid Tuition Medical School Tuition (2013-2014) Full-time students, MD and MD/PhD Full time students, PhD University Fee (2013-2014) Full time students

$22,500 per term $11,750 per term $750 per term

Tuition Rebate and Refund Policy Students are required to withdraw from classes in accordance with established policy. Students may not withdraw from classes or the School of Medicine without official notification. Non-attendance of classes does not constitute an official withdrawal, and neither relieves the student of his/her financial obligation nor entitles the student to a refund. Tuition is charged twice annually; it is split between a date set prior to the beginning of classes and at the approximate midpoint of the academic year. If a student finds it necessary to withdraw from the School of Medicine, the student must apply in writing to the Associate Dean for Student Affairs for permission to withdraw. The student may be entitled to a tuition refund. The amount of refund diminishes as the duration of attendance by a student in a given academic year lengthens. Upon recommendation from the Dean, the University refunds tuition based on either the beginning of classes or the date the second tuition installment is due (except for the admissions deposit submitted by incoming first-year students) according to the following schedule: 100% tuition refund for withdrawal prior to the first week of classes 100% tuition refund for withdrawal during the first week of classes 75% tuition refund for withdrawal during the second week of classes 50% tuition refund for withdrawal during the third week of classes 25% tuition refund for withdrawal during the fourth week of classes 0% tuition refund for withdrawal thereafter

Page 24


This schedule complies with federal regulations of the U.S. Department of Education. A copy of these regulations is kept on file in the Office of Student Affairs. A student who withdraws during any semester without the approval of the Dean is not entitled to refund of tuition and will automatically receive a failing grade in all courses. A student who withdraws from the School of Medicine is not entitled to return and must reapply for admission if he or she is interested in returning. Readmission is not guaranteed. If the student is readmitted, the School of Medicine may accept or reject any or all of the previously earned credits. Students who receive federal financial aid and do not complete at least 60% of the enrollment period for which they are charged are subject to the return of Title IV funds as per a calculation based on percentage attendance. Funds must be returned to Title IV programs in the following order: 1. Unsubsidized Federal Loan Program 2. Subsidized Federal Loan Program (discontinued 07/01/2012) 3. Federal Perkins Loan Program 4. Any other Title IV program 5. Other federal, state, private or institutional sources Students who believe that circumstances warrant an exception from published policy may appeal to the Associate Dean for Student Affairs. Such exceptions are considered in cases of illness associated with medical conditions not present upon enrollment and/or death and/or involuntary call to military service. During a planned Leave of Absence (LOA), a student is charged a small matriculation fee, and any prepaid tuition is applied upon the student’s return.

Financial Aid http://medicine.hofstra.edu/admission/financialaid/index.html School of Medicine students are able to obtain all financial aid services in the Office of Financial Aid which is physically located in the School of Medicine. In the event that a student is relying on financial aid to cover living expenses above the cost of tuition and fees, checks are processed by the University and made available for pick-up at the University’s Office of Student Financial Services. Financial aid offered includes loans and scholarships. Detailed information regarding the application process is included on the website at: http://medicine-staging.hofstra.edu/admission/financialaid/financialaid_howtoapply.html. All first-year borrowers are required to schedule and attend a one-on-one entrance interview with the Director of Financial Aid. These meetings take place during the first 12 weeks of the academic year and students are made aware that failure to attend this session may jeopardize timely financial aid disbursements scheduled to occur the following term. This personalized session covers introductory topics including: • • •

Individual analysis of the financial aid award and preliminary estimation of indebtedness at the anticipated time of graduation; Review and discussion of undergraduate indebtedness; Review of the terms and conditions of the loans in the student’s financial aid award;

Page 25


• • •

Review of the cost of attendance and the student’s budget for the upcoming academic year; Early introduction to loan forgiveness opportunities and loan repayment plans; and Preliminary discussion of the student’s financial goals.

Beyond the required entrance interview, students are highly encouraged to attend, participate in, or view a series of optional sessions, workshops and webcasts. The Financial Aid website includes descriptions and timing of the sessions. PowerPoint presentations are available on the School of Medicine website in the “financial literacy” section. http://medicine.hofstra.edu/admission/financialaid/financialaid_literacy.html Links to AAMC FIRST for Medical Education resources also are present on the School of Medicine website, and handouts are available in the Office. https://www.aamc.org/services/first/ During the first term of the fourth year, a mandatory exit interview conducted by the Director of Financial Aid is required of all MSIV students who have received financial assistance. Similar to the entrance interview, this session is designed to evaluate each student’s debt profile and to allow students an opportunity to discuss any specific scenarios and opportunities they are considering.

Each week of the curriculum is defined by a scientific theme and anchored by two hybrid problembased/ case-based learning cases known by the acronym PEARLS (Patient-Centered Explorations in Active Reasoning, Learning, and Synthesis). During Structure sessions, faculty preceptors challenge students to apply their understanding of biomedical science in solving clinical problems by linking structure and function. In ICE, students complement their classroom learning with direct patient care. Each week also includes specific concept framing sessions, opportunities for review and reinforcement, and ample self-directed learning time. The First 100 Weeks ends with a period in which the students prepare for the USMLE Step 1, followed by the seventh course, Transitions, a course in preparation for the Second 100 Weeks. In addition, there is ample time in the First 100 Weeks for personalized experiences, including opportunities during the first summerfor in-depth pursuit of individual interests, such as research, community service work, or international health. The School’s curricular model enables students to participate in the care of patients and their clinical conditions in diverse settings. ICE is an integrated longitudinal clinical experience that occurs in selected Health System community-based facilities, including outpatient, inpatient, and emergency care settings. ICE affords students direct, meaningful patient responsibility while they are mentored by School faculty from multiple core disciplines. The clinical curriculum of ICE begins coincident with the first course, From the Person to the Professional: Challenges, Privileges, and Responsibilities (CPR). During this time, students complete training and certification as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs). As a part of this training, students have experiences in multiple locations throughout the community, including but not limited to patient homes, chronic care facilities, and emergency departments. Students also begin their medical education by learning how to elicit a complete history and conduct a complete physical exam, as well as by learning their role as professionals through experiences on health care teams. For the remainder of ICE, each student is assigned to four physician faculty preceptors. The preceptors represent four core disciplines: general medicine (internal medicine or family medicine), surgery, pediatrics, and obstetrics and gynecology. Students participate for a minimum of one-half day per week in caring for patients with these practitioners in primarily ambulatory, but also inpatient and other community, settings. Students also participate in a shorter experience in psychiatry toward the end of ICE. The longitudinal patient experiences and conditions encountered are supplemented by additional opportunities to participate in the care of a variety of other patients and clinical conditions in these same settings. As much as possible, clinical experiences are designed to be coordinated temporally with the integrated science curricular content and themes.

Second 100 Weeks

The Second 100 Weeks includes the Advanced Clinical Experience (ACE) in the third year and Preparation for Residency in the fourth or final year. The Advanced Clinical Experience (ACE) During the Second 100 Weeks of the curriculum, students participate in ACE. Consistent with the School’s guiding principles, ACE continues to integrate scientific and clinical learning. However, in ACE, the ratio of clinical time/ classroom time is increased. Student experiences are designed with an increasing focus at two tertiary hospital campuses (North Shore University Hospital and Long Island Jewish Medical Center, which includes Cohen Children’s Hospital and Zucker Hillside Psychiatric Hospital) that provide exposure to more acute illness as students progress in their clinical ability. The third year is composed of 48 weeks, each divided into three 12-week long blocks in the core disciplines of Medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics, Obstetrics/Gynecology, Neurology, and Psychiatry. Each of the three blocks is followed by a Reading Week, a Reflection, Integration and Assessment (RIA) Week, and two weeks of Selective. The structure of the year provides a discipline-specific focus while integrating cumulative and longitudinal clinical learning experiences. This model ensures that students: •

are placed where diagnostic reasoning occurs; i.e. in situations in which patients are, as yet, undiagnosed;

Page 32


• • • •

experience illnesses from presentation through to diagnosis and treatment, i.e. “Whole Illness Episodes;” are provided opportunities for spaced, i.e. repetitive and cumulative, learning; are evaluated by a robust and objective assessment process that drives learning; and are offered the opportunity to explore areas of interest.

The discipline-specific focus of this model for the third year is accomplished through: 1. Six-week cycles focused on one discipline 2. Discipline-specific morning “ACE” rounds 3. Discipline-specific core learning time 4. Shelf exams every 12 weeks Six-Week Discipline-Specific Cycles: Each 12-week long block is composed of two 6-week cycles in which students learn in both inpatient and outpatient settings related to the core disciplines. These settings are chosen to ensure that students evaluate patients at the point of presentation with their chief complaints or illnesses. ACE Rounds: These rounds occur 1-3 times a week with the discipline-specific ACE Director in charge of that cycle. Students present the patients they have evaluated to the group, and the discipline-specific ACE Director facilitates the discussion. Core Learning Sessions: All students gather weekly for a half-day of classes. This class time is a mixture of small and large group learning, focused upon case-based and topic-based content in the core discipline. This time allows reinforcement of science in the context of patient care and revisiting of the curriculum’s themes and drivers. Shelf Exams: At the end of each 12-week cycle, students take the shelf exams in the two core disciplines of that cycle. Additional assessments during this period include essay exams, oral exams, standardized patients, and simulations. Taken together, these features provide a focus and structure for in-depth learning of each core discipline. The cumulative and longitudinal features of this model for the third year are accomplished through: 1. Self-directed time for follow-up of patients 2. Ongoing, cumulative experiences in Medicine and Surgery 3. Longitudinal continuity clinic experiences in Medicine or Pediatrics 4. Week-long RIA weeks at the end of each 12-week block. Self-directed Time for Follow-Up: Each student has one afternoon per week dedicated to following up on his/her patients who have been discharged or transferred to other services, enabling the student to experience “Whole Illness Episodes.” For example, whereas in the traditional model, the student’s experience with a patient presenting with a stroke would end with the patient’s discharge, in this model, the student has designated time to visit the patient in a rehabilitation facility or at home.

Page 33


Ongoing, Cumulative Experiences in Medicine and Surgery: During each 6-week cycle, the students are assigned to experiences in Medicine and Surgery that relate to the core discipline. For example, during Neurology, students have direct, participatory experiences in Rehabilitation Medicine and in Neurosurgery. Longitudinal Continuity Clinical Experience: In the third year, students have a longitudinal continuity clinic experience in either Medicine or Pediatrics. This allows students to witness the natural history of diseases characterized by a long course of illness. Assessment Weeks: At the end of each 12-week block, students have a week-long assessment period. During this time, they are assessed using oral and essay exams, shelf subject examinations, standardized patients, and simulations. Milestones in each of the six core disciplines are assessed in an ongoing fashion through these weeks. Selectives: Each assessment week is followed by two weeks of Selective. Selective time in the third year differs from elective time in the fourth year in that third year students select from a variety of specialty and subspecialty experiences offered only at the School of Medicine, whereas fourth year students are permitted to pursue elective experiences at institutions other than the School of Medicine.

Page 34


Preparation for Residency The fourth year of school, “Preparation for Residency,” includes four required acting internships in medicine or pediatrics, critical care (in medicine, pediatrics, or surgery), emergency medicine (in medicine or pediatrics), and a fourth, selected discipline of a student’s choice. These acting internships are specifically designed to prepare students for residency and the level of responsibility and supervision expected during postgraduate training. Students round out and customize their experiences with electives in clinical medicine and/or research. A student’s elective choices are made with the guidance of his or her Society Master.

Curricular Drivers

The “drivers” of the curriculum play a critical role in the development of the School’s longitudinal themes and in the ongoing learning experiences of the students. A “driver” is a force largely beyond an individual’s control that exerts pressure on the evolution of medical practice and thus must be dealt with constructively in the curriculum. Many drivers affect medicine, and the School has identified five which it believes are of key importance as it prepares students for the practice of medicine in the years 2020 and beyond. By directly addressing and responding to these drivers, the School aims to create, through an integrated approach, a curriculum that positively and effectively prepares its students. The School’s five drivers are defined below: 1. The Continuum of Care: The care of the patient across the continuum - from wellness through illness and among acute, chronic and episodic interactions with the medical community - in an integrated, comprehensive, and patient-centered manner is increasingly necessary and will continue to be driven by many growing societal forces. 2. Decision Making and Uncertainty: Scientific and technological advances can potentially aid in diagnostics and therapeutics and the dissemination of information. Despite being developed in large part to reduce uncertainty and improve decision making accuracy, these advances

Page 35


paradoxically contribute to the growing burden and importance of properly addressing decision making and functioning confidently under uncertainty in the context of patient-centered care. 3. Social Context/Responsibility: Physicians have a responsibility to understand a patient as a person with an illness. Students must develop a deeper understanding of the full scope of determinants of health, including the importance of becoming culturally competent physicians with a sense of responsibility that extends beyond an individual patient to society at large. As the population grows in complexity, number, and diversity, and in the context of ever increasing societal and economic pressures and an environment of ever increasing global demand and competition for limited resources, these forces place increasing pressures on health care delivery and promotion and maintenance of wellness. 4. Quality and Effectiveness: Although the definition and scope of quality in medicine and provision of health care remain under debate, effective and safe physician performance and behavior require more than simply possessing knowledge and technical ability. It is increasingly important that physicians demonstrate the ability to work in inter-professional teams to deliver “the right care at the right time.” 5. Scientific Discovery: As understanding of the scientific basis of health and disease expands exponentially, the need for scientific rigor and lifelong application of new knowledge to patient care and the translation of that knowledge from the bench to the bedside will continue to grow in importance as a major driver in health care and medical education. The School’s curriculum is designed to ensure that science is learned, applied, and retained in the delivery of health care. Fostering a spirit of inquiry is core to the School’s success in this domain.

Reflection, Integration, and Assessment, or RIA, Weeks In keeping with the School’s philosophy that assessment drives learning, RIA weeks devoted to Reflection, Integration, and Assessment are included regularly throughout the curriculum. These RIA weeks occur at the end of every course during the First 100 Weeks and at the end of every 12-week cycle during the third year. The majority of formative and summative assessment occurs within the span of these weeks. During the first two years, students complete summative short answer essay exams, a summative Structure practical, and formative multiple choice questions, and they participate in a variety of standardized and simulated clinical encounters. During the Second 100 Weeks, RIA week assessments include short answer essay, oral and shelf exams, as well as simulations and standardized patient encounters.

From the Person to the Professional: Challenges, Privileges, and Responsibilities is a course constructed upon the framework of the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) curriculum. However, to be better suited to its central role within the first course of medical school, the EMT curriculum has been intentionally expanded in its depth and breadth of content to include more advanced scientific and clinical concepts. Foundational systems-based physiology, structural science and pharmacology are integrated with clinical skills, including communications, history-taking, physical examination and the use of bedside ultrasound. The professional context of learning the knowledge and skills necessary for the deliberate practice of medicine is introduced through explorations of the societal “drivers” which influence both the learning process and its application to patient care.

The Biologic Imperative integrates the process of proliferation at its two fundamental levels, the cell and the organism. Through a series of carefully crafted patient-based sessions, the course builds a story of how regulation of cellular proliferation controls both the growth of an individual and the ability of an individual to procreate. The course highlights the importance of the process of proliferation in disease, with each week introducing examples of pathogenic states resulting from aberrations in the process. Among these pathogenic states, a particular focus is placed on neoplasia, including its impact on the patient suffering from illnesses related to neoplasia. To complement the science, students are introduced to their community preceptors and initiate the next phase of their initial clinical experience. Course Goals: At the end of The Biologic Imperative, students will be able to: 1. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of core concepts in genetics, molecular and cell biology, human development, and oncogenesis, as well as the ability to integrate this knowledge and understanding with gross, microscopic, and radiologic structure and with clinically related topics in medicine. 2.

Continuity and Change: Fueling the Body is an integrated approach to how the human body provides itself with the substrates, structures and processes necessary for metabolism. The course unfolds through a series of carefully designed patient-based cases that illustrate how the body and its cells are fueled. The course highlights the micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids) as fuel sources. The extremes of malnutrition and obesity are explored through their impact on the patient as well as on the population. At the cellular level, Fueling the Body addresses the biochemical pathways by which nutrients are converted to usable energy. At the organ system level, the course highlights the structure and function of the gastrointestinal tract in health and disease. Study of the normal physiology of these organ systems and their roles in digestion and processing of food is integrated with exploration of the mechanisms by which important diseases disrupt gastrointestinal function. Biopsychosocial and clinical aspects of metabolic and gastrointestinal health and disease complement the students’ learning of normal and abnormal metabolism, as well as normal and abnormal structure and function of the gastrointestinal system.

Continuity and Change: Homeostasis Science Education Taranjeet Ahuja, DO, Maria Barilla-LaBarca, MD, Lauren Block, MD, Judith Brenner, MD, David Elkowitz, DO, Maya Frankfurt, PhD, Aaron Gindea, MD, Sandeep Jauhar, MD, Keith Metzger, PhD and William Rennie, MD

Continuity and Change: Homeostasis is a course organized around the interrelationships between the cardiac, pulmonary and renal systems from the cellular to the organismal level. While each system is examined independently, the interactions among the three are examined in the context of maintenance of homeostasis. The relationship of structure to function is one lens through which this is examined. As the vasculature is one of the ways in which the individual systems function in relationship to one another, vascular biology is an addition focal point in this course. The molecular and cellular mechanisms supporting hemostasis and thrombosis are examined, as are their pathological consequences. Using PEARLS cases as the anchoring points, the structure and PPS curricular components complement the scientific themes of each week. A rich clinical experience in ICE

Page 40


complements the classroom learning. Because the curricular content parallels the medicine practice so well, the integration between scientific and clinical learning is a true highlight of this course. Course Goals: At the end of Continuity and Change: Homeostasis, students: 1. Understand the principles of cardiac physiology and electrophysiology and the mechanisms by which cardiac function is maintained in health and in disease 2.

Interacting with the Environment Science Education Taranjeet Ahuja, DO, Maria Barilla-LaBarca, MD, Lauren Block, MD, Judith Brenner, MD, David Elkowitz, DO, Keith Metzger, PhD, William Rennie, MD, Joel Stern, PhD and Joanne Willey, PhD

Interacting with the Environment presents the human organism, whose immune system co-evolved with its microbial partners. Normal immune function is contrasted to immune dysfunctionusing the paradigms of immune deficiencies, hypersensitivity, and autoimmunity. The dynamics of immune modulation are investigated by evaluating the pharmacology of immunosuppressive and antiinflammatory medications. Students explore the contribution of microorganisms to maintaining health and to causing disease. Students learn how commensal organisms can cause disease when introduced to anatomical sites to which they have not adapted, and they also learn the means by which pathogenic microbes evade the immune system and subvert normal host cellular functions. Infectious diseases are presented using a systems-based approach that incorporates the pharmacological principles of antimicrobial medications. The course ends with an emphasis on the musculoskeletal system, which exemplifies coordinated interaction between a host with its environment and provides a link to the next course, The Human Condition. Course Goals: At the end of Interacting with the Environment course, students will be able to: 1. Understand the development of the immune system in healthy hosts throughout the human life span. 2.

Recognize the dynamic interrelationship between the human host and microbial agents that cause or prevent human disease.

3. Understand the biological mechanisms that constitute the cellular, molecular, and functional properties of the immune system, and that cause autoimmune disease and other immunopathologies. 4. Explain the processes used by microbes to evade immune recognition and subvert host defense. 5. Understand the diversity of microbes that cause infectious disease, the pathophysiology of important and common infectious diseases and the molecular basis for antimicrobial therapies. 6.

The Human Condition Science Education Taranjeet Ahuja, DO, Maria Barilla-LaBarca, MD, Lauren Block, MD, Judith Brenner, MD, David Elkowitz, DO, Maya Frankfurt, PhD, Ronald Kanner, MD, Keith Metzger, PhD and William Rennie, MD

The Human Condition provides an integrated presentation of the factors that make us uniquely human. The course addresses the development, physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, biochemistry, and structure of the central and peripheral nervous system from the cellular to the organismic level. The course is organized as a journey through the structure and function of the neuroaxis. Attention is paid to the pathogenesis and therapeutic approach to pain and to the special senses, balance, and speech, including biomedical and clinical topics related to our unique ability to transduce information from our environment. An important component of the course is the neuropsychiatric section, which focuses on behavior. The approach to psychiatric function and illness begins with basic principles of psychiatry and human mental development, and transitions into specific groups of psychiatric disorders, presented both from a clinical diagnostic and interventional perspective and with attention to what is known about the underlying pathophysiology of these disorders. Using PEARLS cases as the anchoring points, the structure and PPS curricular components complement the scientific themes of each week. Course Goals: At the end of The Human Condition, students will be able to: 1. Understand the principles of neuroscience and the mechanisms by which neurologic function is

Page 43

Acting Internship in Medicine Medicine and Pediatrics Gino Farina, MD

A student may elect to fulfill the requirements of the Acting Internship in Medicine through either a four-week inpatient Internal Medicine or four-week Pediatrics experience. The objectives for the Acting Internship were developed internally, by the faculty, in accordance with the School’s Educational Program Objectives, and using a variety of sources, including recommendations of the Clerkship Directors in Internal Medicine (CDIM) and the Council on Medical Student Education in Pediatrics (COMSEP). The Director of the Acting Internship in Medicine, together with a small working group of faculty in Medicine and in Pediatrics and with the Associate Dean for the Advanced Clinical Experience, defined the kinds of patients, clinical conditions, and procedural skills, as well as the clinical settings for such experiences, needed to meet the Acting Internship objectives. The Directors of the Acting Internship in Medicine are responsible for ensuring that each student’s clinical experiences are appropriate to meet the clerkship objectives. If a student is not making satisfactory progress in meeting clerkship expectations for clinical experiences, the student’s schedule is modified to ensure success at meeting the expectations.

Inpatient Psychiatry

Medical Students will learn about non-invasive as well as invasive treatment of spine disorders. Consultation-Liaison (C/L) Psychiatry or Psychosomatic Medicine is a unique discipline within the field of psychiatry which combines knowledge of medical illnesses, psychopathology, psychotherapy and psychopharmacology with an ability to forge liaisons within the medical community. This field is perfect for the psychiatrist who enjoys working within a general hospital setting. This selective exposes students to the daily work of the C/L psychiatrist. Clinical experience is gained by seeing patients with fellows and residents, and by participating in teaching rounds led by one of the psychiatric attendings. As students gain skills and confidence, they can work up consults on their own and present the patients on rounds. In addition to the clinical work, the students attend classes given by attendings and fellows which focus on various aspects of C/L work and the weekly case conference. The medical student rotates on one of the inpatient service units and has primary responsibility for the care of assigned cases. This includes the history and physical, psychiatric examinations, laboratory evaluations, diagnostic assessment, biopsychosocial formulations, and treatment plans for newly admitted patients. The student receives individual supervision from an attending physician and works alongside PGY-I and PGY-II residents. The experience also involves participation in Grand Rounds, educational case conferences involving Neurology, Medicine and Psychiatry, and didactic seminars on such topics as interviewing, psychopharmacology and psychotherapy.

With the ever increasing recognition of the interface between medical and psychiatric illnesses, Zucker Hillside Hospital offers a month-long elective based in its Medical Clinic. Students participate in providing primary medical care to hospitalized psychiatric patients and medical consultations directed at the interface of medicine and psychiatry (e.g., medical causes of behavioral disorders). During the selective, students learn how to differentiate between psychiatric and medical conditions, proper diagnostic evaluation procedures, and how to recognize drug interactions between psychotropic medications and drugs used to treat medical conditions. The student also gains expertise in the medical side effects of specific psychotropic medications and other therapies (e.g., ECT), medical contraindications to their use, and appropriate ways in which to follow psychotropic use in medically complicated patients. Students will become acquainted with a variety of psychotherapies, including insight oriented psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and marital therapy. Intake evaluations, biopsychosocial formulations, and implementation of initial treatment plans will provide the core of the clinical experience. On-going individual supervision and preceptorships comprise the supervisory component of the rotation. Didactics will include reading tutorials with individual mentors, as well as participation in psychotherapy classes and case conferences. Students choosing this selective will work as part of the treatment team in an all women's inpatient psychiatric unit. In addition to gaining experience managing major psychiatric illnesses, students will also learn the assessment and management of conditions more unique to women, including symptoms related to abuse, post-partum depression and psychosis, and the treatment of the pregnant psychiatric patient. The partial hospital program is a unique and emerging level of treatment in psychiatry. The program is designed for patients who are well enough not to require 24-hour hospitalization, but who benefit from more treatment contact than can be provided in a clinic setting. Moreover, treatment in this setting is measured against "real life." Although patients are seen daily for groups and individual follow-up, they spend evenings and weekends at home, have an opportunity for leisure and social activities and can plan for vocational preparation and rehabilitation within the context of the program. Students participating in this selective have the opportunity to become familiar with the structure and function of partial hospital programs. During this rotation, students join child psychiatry staff in the initial assessment, ongoing evaluation, and treatment of mentally ill children and adolescents in an inpatient setting. Students will become familiar with psychiatric illnesses of childhood and adolescence, as well as the ways in which common adult psychiatric illnesses may present in children. Students will also gain insight into the many challenges of working with this population as they participate in individual, group, and family sessions. Students participating in this selective work with the Zucker Hillside Hospital neurologist evaluating psychiatric patients on the inpatient and outpatient services who have co-morbid neurologic presentations. By the end of the rotation, students will be adept at the nuances of the full neurologic examination, will be able to appreciate the interactions and interfaces between psychiatric and neurologic disorders, and will be taught how to differentiate between psychiatric and neurologic conditions. During this rotation, students will learn how to evaluate children and adolescents who present to emergency rooms with acute psychiatric complaints. Students will become familiar with the common presenting diagnoses, their complete evaluation, and the resources available for their management. Students will also gain appreciation for the unique challenges of working with this population in the emergency setting. The Zucker Hillside Evaluation Center functions as a combination walk in clinic for psychiatric crisis intervention as well as the location for initial work-up of all admissions to the hospital. As a psychiatric crisis service, the Evaluation Center also provides psychiatric consultation to the Long Island Jewish Emergency Room during the day. Approaches to care may include medications and referrals to private clinicians, clinics, day programs or psychiatric hospitalization. Students participating in this selective have the opportunity to experience first-hand the care of patients in crisis. After successfully completing the rotation, students will have been trained in the assessment and treatment of psychiatric emergency situations. As the population of the United States grows older, the need for geriatric specialists also continues to rise. Students can participate in a variety of clinical settings during this rotation, including a geriatric psychiatry inpatient unit, a comprehensive geropsychiatry outpatient clinic, and a geriatric psychiatric day hospital. During the rotation, students will gain insight into the unique challenges of working with this population, including managing the combination of medical and psychiatric illnesses, medication challenges, and social issues related to the geriatric population. Students may also have the opportunity to observe electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) as part of their patient's treatment plan. Students, supervised by faculty, gain experience in all subspecialties of radiology, including abdominal, chest, cardiac, musculoskeletal, and neuroradiology, as well as all modalities of the field, including ultrasound, CT and MRI. Students, supervised by faculty, gain experience in all aspects of Interventional Radiology. Students, supervised by faculty, gain experience in CT and MRI neuroimaging and interventional techniques. They also learn how to apply advanced imaging modalities, including functional MRI, PET/CT, and MR spectroscopy to clinical diagnosis and decision making.

The Office of Student Affairs also runs programming for the students that focus on wellness and life balance. This includes yoga classes, time management and support groups. The Office of Student Affairs also assists in coordination of Academic Society programming. Approximately 25 students from each class constitute an academic advisory group, which is led by an experienced clinical member. These faculty leaders serve as longitudinal School of Medicine academic advisors and professional development mentors for the students in their group. The student’s academic advisor has no role in the student’s evaluation or promotion.

Society Masters As academic advisors, the Society Masters regularly review their students’ progress toward meeting each of the eight competencies of the School of Medicine. The Society Masters meet individually at least annually with students in their first and second years and multiple times with students in their third and fourth years of their educational program. They also are available at the School of Medicine during set office hours and at a student’s request. Brett Cox, MD Assistant Professor of Radiation Medicine 718-470-7190 bcox2@nshs.edu

National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) and Post Graduate Education Process The process for applying to Graduate Medical Education Programs begins at the end of the 2nd year of medical school with a formal presentation from the Vice Dean/Dean of Academic Affairs and continues with the involvement of the Society Masters and departmental advisors throughout the third and final year of training. Students can use two months of Career Development in their final year of the educational program to complete their application and travel for interviews. Students apply for most internships and residencies through the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) service. Information regarding this process is accessible on-line at www.nrmp.org. A few residency programs use the San Francisco matching program. Information on this process can be found at www.sfmatch.org.

HONORS AND AWARDS White Coat Ceremony Graduation with Distinction in Research

Page 160


White Coat Ceremony The White Coat ceremony is a significant moment in a medical student’s career. This ceremony creates a psychological, intellectual, and ethical contract between the student and the profession, and promotes empathy in the practice of medicine from the very start of medical training. During the ceremony, students are brought to the stage and “cloaked” in their first white coat. Wearing the white coat—the mantle of the medical profession—is a hands-on experience that underscores the bonding process. It is personally placed on each student’s shoulders by his or her Academic Advisor, symbolizing a personally delivered gift of faith, confidence and compassion. In addition, the Hofstra North Shore - LIJ School of Medicine partners with the Gold Foundation to show the distinct value the entire School of Medicine community places on to Humanism in Medicine.

Graduation with Distinction in Research Those students who complete a significant piece of scholarly work are eligible for graduation with Distinction in Research. The Student Research Advisory Subcommittee of the Student Advancement Committee determines whether a particular student will graduate with this honor.

Student Health Services Medical students are able to obtain assistance for sensitive health care and psychiatric or psychological problems through both University and Health System resources. Assistance provided to students through Hofstra University’s Student Counseling Services and its Wellness Center is regarded as confidential. Consistent with ethical principles and professional practice standards, the identity of those using counseling services, as well as personally identifiable disclosures made in the course of the professional relationship, are not shared with outside parties. Counseling staff are further prohibited from participation in the medical education program or otherwise evaluating students for academic standing or promotion. The University’s Student Counseling Services maintains a current database of mental health professionals, including psychiatrists and psychologists in private practice, and hospitals and clinics serving the area local to the University. In addition, the Health System provides a specialty behavioral health service for employed and voluntary physicians that is available to students. Students seeking psychiatric or psychological counseling, or other sensitive health services, may receive those services from a broad array of network providers, as would any employed physician in the North Shore - LIJ Health System. These providers have no direct responsibility for evaluating students at any time in their education. The Physicians Resource Network (PRN) serves as a free triage designed to pair the individual with the most appropriate resources in the community. The PRN liaison is in regular contact with the Office of Student Affairs, allowing the School to confirm that any physician to whom PRN refers a student is not involved in the academic evaluation or grading of students enrolled in the School of Medicine. Finally, the Health System maintains an Employee Assistance Program, also available to the medical students. Additional counseling and coaching resources, especially as they relate to family and personal performance issues, are available through this resource and integrated into the medical benefits available to all medical students. The Health System maintains a large in-network panel of physicians in all specialties, each of whom is available for any other non-psychiatric sensitive health care issue. If a student faces an emergent health care concern, students are advised to go to the Emergency Department at the closest North Shore - LIJ facility.

The Hofstra University Wellness Center provides on-campus basic outpatient medical care for acute and non-acute illnesses and injuries. Services also include laboratory tests, x-rays, and medication provision, as well as allergy and women’s health services. Hours of operation during the academic year are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:45 PM, and Saturday and Sunday, 10:00 AM to 5:45 PM. During intersession and summers, hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:45 PM. During the hours when the Wellness Center is closed, all Hofstra University Public Safety officers are certified first responders and will assist any student in need of emergency medical services.

Student Academic Support Students with academic difficulty are identified in several ways: 1) informally through weekly formative essays, performance in PEARLS and Structure laboratory sessions; and 2) formally during the formative and summative assessments of RIA week. Students identified by faculty as potentially at risk via informal mechanisms are offered several types of assistance by the relevant course directors. Depending upon the source of concern, these include recommendations that the student: 1) complete both, rather than one, of the weekly formative essays to enhance mastery of the week’s content; 2) attend the optional weekly R&R sessions and faculty office hours; and/or 3) schedule additional clinical skills practice sessions with or without videotape review. At the end of each course, the Office of Assessment compiles student performance results, and the Student Advancement Committee (SAC) reviews any student demonstrating academic difficulty. Academic difficulty is defined as not meeting expectations for (i.e., failing) any summative component of a course, or meeting expectations with recommendations more than once in an academic year for the same summative component of a course. The SAC specifically reviews recommendations from the course directors regarding remediation for students not meeting expectations, and regarding targeted tutoring and/or enrichment work for students meeting expectations with recommendations. After the SAC accepts or modifies the recommended approach for each student, the student’s Society Master meets with the student to track and ensure successful implementation of all aspects of the remediation and/or enrichment plan. Students with documented learning disabilities work directly with the Office of Student Affairs to obtain appropriate academic support and accommodations. If necessary, the Associate Dean for Student Affairs may refer a medical student to the University’s Services for Students with Disabilities, which works with individual students to document and support previously unrecognized disabilities that affect academic performance.

Ombudsperson Victor Fornari, MD 718-470-3510 vfornari@nshs.edu The School of Medicine Ombudsperson also provides a neutral, confidential and independent resource for dispute resolution for students, staff, faculty, residents and postdoctoral scholars. The Ombudsperson serves as an intermediary, mediator, facilitator and informal information gatherer, or simply as a listener. The Ombudsperson has no authority to take action, but has access to anyone in the School for the purpose of informal resolution of concerns and disputes.

Page 163


Issues not resolved by the Ombudsperson will be brought to the Vice Dean/Dean for Academic Affairs, who will follow the Student Mistreatment Policy described in the Bylaws, Faculty Handbook, and Student Handbook and posted on the School of Medicine’s website http://medicine.hofstra.edu/about/policies/policies_mistreatment.html

Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) 040 Memorial Hall 516-463-7075 http://www.hofstra.edu/StudentAffairs/stddis/index.html The School of Medicine has an institutional commitment to provide equal educational opportunities for qualified students with disabilities who apply for admission to or are enrolled as students in its educational program. As part of a University with a history of leadership in student diversity and individual rights, the School of Medicine commits to full compliance with state and federal laws and regulations, including the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. A “qualified person with a disability” is an individual with a disability who meets the academic and technical standards required for admission to and participation in the School of Medicine’s educational programs, with or without accommodation. As previously noted, admitted candidates with disabilities are reviewed individually, on a case-by-case basis, with complete and careful consideration of all the skills, attitudes and attributes of each candidate to determine whether there are any reasonable accommodations or available options that would permit the candidate to satisfy the standards. An accommodation is not reasonable if it poses a direct threat to the health or safety of self and/or others, if making it requires a substantial modification in an essential element of the curriculum, if it lowers academic standards, or if it poses an undue administrative burden on the University. Except in rare circumstances, the use by the candidate of a third party intermediary to perform any of the functions described in the Technical Standards set forth above would constitute an unacceptable substantial modification. Students with documented learning disabilities work directly with the Office of Student Affairs to obtain appropriate academic support and accommodations. If necessary, the Associate Dean for Student Affairs may refer a medical student to the University’s Services for Students with Disabilities, which works with individual students to document and support previously unrecognized disabilities that affect academic performance.

Academic/Educational Services The University’s Faculty Computing Services group has 12 instructional technologists dedicated to working with faculty to integrate the use of technology in the curriculum. This multidisciplinary group has experience developing online courses and working directly with faculty to include appropriate technology. The staff members are cross-trained and work across all colleges of the University, thus providing all faculty members with instructional technology support for course innovation and development. In addition, there is a production facility within the Joseph Dionne Lab at McEwen Hall expressly dedicated to connecting faculty with the latest technologies. The lab is equipped with video equipment, software and equipment dedicated to use by faculty, and is staffed by instructional technologists. The North Shore - LIJ Information Technology (IT) department maintains the applications used in various clinical environments to support safe, efficient and effective patient care. This department supports the School of Medicine education through providing access to separate instances of clinical applications, as appropriate, to support case-based learning, simulations and any other teaching modalities. They also provide seamless network access to electronic Hofstra resources from the North Shore - LIJ campuses and provide of access to the School’s Learning Management System (Blackboard) for the purpose of faculty participation in course development, course administration and student evaluation.

Classroom Equipment The University’s Faculty Computing Services installs and maintains all classroom audio-visual equipment (everything electric in the room except the computer). Their Media Engineering department works with the School of Medicine to install new classrooms according to the University's Classroom Design Guidelines and meeting the University's Classroom Minimum Standards. For more information about Classroom Equipment, please visit http://www.hofstra.edu/about/it/itfcs/itfcs_classroom_equipment.html.

Office of Student Research Opportunities/Support Medical students have opportunities to meaningfully participate in several different types of research through several different programs. An annually updated list of potential research opportunities, including a description of the project, mentor and contact information, appears on the student portal. Basic and Translational Research: The investigators of the Feinstein Institute study the pathogenesis of human diseases. Select investigators of the Feinstein Institute are members of the School of Medicine’s Department of Molecular Medicine, and the Dean of the Elmezzi Graduate School of Molecular Medicine is also the Chair of the School’s Department of Molecular Medicine. Medical students also have access to research opportunities within the departments of natural science and the School of Engineering and Applied Science of Hofstra University. The faculty of these departments conducts basic research in areas of potential interest to medical students, such as tissue regeneration and the molecular genetics of morphological differentiation in bacteria. Clinical Research: The Feinstein Institutional Review Board (IRB) oversees more than 1,100 human research studies which enroll approximately 10,000 subjects annually. These studies include both early- and late-

Page 165


phase investigator-initiated and industry-sponsored clinical studies. Students of the School of Medicine have multiple opportunities to participate in clinical studies under faculty mentorship. Health Services Research: The goal of health services outcomes and effectiveness research is to examine the impact of the organization, financing, and management of health care services on access, delivery, cost, outcomes and quality. The Krasnoff Quality Management Institute of the North Shore - LIJ Health System is an organization of professionals with extensive expertise in quantitative and qualitative methods of data analysis. The Institute offers educational programs in quality management, performs clinical program evaluation, and supports quality research. Population- and Community-Based Research: The School is committed to educating future physicians who embrace responsibility for the health of their communities, and it demonstrates this commitment through the inclusion of a strong Population and Community Health curriculum within the Patient, Physician and Society component of each course of the First 100 Weeks. Guidance and Oversight of Scholarly Activity The School of Medicine has a Student Research Advisory Committee that individually reviews each research project and mentor submitted for student consideration, as well as core faculty members of the Department of Science Education. Medical students are guided in their exploration and selection of scholarly opportunities by their academic advisors and by the members of the Student Research Advisory Committee, who also assist the students in preparing their work for presentation and publication. If a student selects a mentor outside of the School of Medicine community, he or she is required to identify, an internal comentor. Protection and Funding of Research Time Students have the summer following their first year of medical school to engage in full-time research. The School has an application process by which students may apply for approval and funding to support scholarly activity during this time. Students also have dedicated self-directed learning time throughout the first two years of medical school and in-block intervals thereafter, including at least 22 weeks of (s)elective time in the second half of the educational training program, during which they may choose to engage in research activities. Research experiences may receive elective credit, rather than funding support, under the following conditions: 1) approval of a brief, written description of the proposed project, signed both by the student and the research mentor; 2) preparation of a written report of the results of that work submitted to and approved by the Student Research Advisory Committee and by the Vice Dean/Dean for Academic Affairs; and 3) narrative evaluation of the student’s performance by the mentor and of the mentor’s performance by the student. Students also have the opportunity to extend their undergraduate medical education program by one additional year to conduct research if they so choose. Should a student select this option, he or she pays a small matriculation fee to maintain medical student enrollment status, but tuition is not required. The student initiates this option through the Associate Dean for Student Affairs, and the process of evaluation and approval is the same as that described above for research elective credit.

Recognition of Scholarship as a Core Value Annually, the School of Medicine, through the Office of Academic Affairs, holds an annual Scholarship Day during which students present and discuss, in poster session, the results of their scholarly work with faculty, research staff, their fellow students and other members of the community. Those students graduating with Distinction in Research are separately recognized in an oral presentation session, followed by a reception to which all students, faculty, research staff and community participants will be invited. This event serves to further enhance the culture of scholarship within the School of Medicine and highlight the value placed upon it.

Support of Faculty Scholarship The School of Medicine identifies scholarship as one of its ten core values and defines research and scholarship as one of its eight educational program competencies. Research is in-depth investigation designed to acquire new knowledge or reach a new level of understanding; investigation must be accompanied by scholarship to meet those ends. The School defines scholarship broadly and inclusively, and recognizes five facets of scholarship: 1) discovery; 2) integration; 3) application; 4) engagement; and 5) teaching. That is, the School promotes scholarly activity that: 1) advances knowledge; 2) connects knowledge across disciplines; 3) applies the outcomes of discovery and integration to consequential problems; 4) links the resources of academic institutions with the needs of the greater communities they serve; and 5) links knowledge and understanding with learning, so that the academic enterprise continually regenerates itself and fulfills its mission and responsibility to society. Under this paradigm, the School fosters scholarly activity in basic biomedical science, cross-disciplinary translational medicine, clinical outcomes and effectiveness research, community- and population-based health care delivery strategies, and innovative medical education. In annual evaluation of its faculty members, the School expects evidence of quality scholarship, teaching, service to the institution and greater community and, if applicable, clinical care. To meet this expectation, the School provides ample resources in support of faculty scholarship. These resources, designed to assist faculty members in the development, funding, and implementation of their scholarly work and in publication of the results of that work, are described and updated in the Faculty Handbook and presented in the Resources subsection of the Faculty section of the School of Medicine website (http://medicine.hofstra.edu/faculty/faculty_resources_academic.html). Programs available to faculty members in support of development of their scholarly activities include: •

Clinical Research Service (CRS) of the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research. Prior to establishment of the School of Medicine, the Feinstein Institute of the North Shore - LIJ Health System housed one of only three NIH-funded GCRCs not directly associated with a medical school. Now, the CRS delivers to faculty a specialized, centralized, intellectually stimulating environment with the infrastructure needed to develop and implement all phases of patient-centered research, including core laboratories, patient encounter facilities, and skilled nursing. Bringing these groups together in a centralized facility includes patients in the medical discovery process and facilitates scholarly activities through the exchange of ideas, collaboration and intellectual growth among varied groups of faculty, including laboratory scientists, physician-researchers, and biostatisticians. The CRS directly supports development of scholarly activities through its core facilities, including biostatistical consultation and support, molecular biological and immunological core laboratory services, and imaging capacity. The CRS also serves as a bidirectional, centralized hub site through

Page 167


which: 1) community participants can identify, access, and partner with investigators in the School of Medicine to design new translational and clinical research programs; and 2) investigators can access skilled study coordinators, databases of potential normal control and disease-specific research subjects, and interface with a collaborative clinical practice and community partner referral network. Finally, the CRS supports development of scholarly activity through its annual core seminar series in research methodologies, basic molecular biology, biostatistics, and the ethics of human investigation. The CRS also is affiliated with the Biomedical Research Alliance of New York (BRANY), an independent contract research organization founded in 1998 by five metropolitan New York academic institutions including North Shore - LIJ Health System. BRANY provides supplemental infrastructure for initiation, IRB review, implementation and conduct of Phase III and Phase IV clinical trials. Therefore, together, CRS and BRANY provide a robust infrastructure and operational support for the performance of all phases of clinical investigation. •

Novel Resources Program Core. This is a set of four core programs designed to facilitate translational and clinical research. It includes a Biorepository; a Tissue Donation Program; a Normal Control Research Registry capable of allowing selection and recall of control subjects by genotype, demographics, or other characteristics; and a nascent BioGene Bank linked to a network of clinical databases.

Biomedical Informatics Program Core. The goal of this resource is to assist in the design, development, and maintenance of cohesive, secure, and usable databases and interfaces for information transfer between clinical electronic records and research environments.

Patient Safety Institute (PSI) of the Center for Learning and Innovation (CLI). This state-of the-art facility supports human simulation training and investigation of the specific effects of simulated environmental training on patient outcomes and resource utilization.

Bioskills Education Center. This 6,200 square foot facility, like PSI, supports training objectives as well as faculty and student scholarship. With its advanced video, endoscopic, imaging, and interventional capabilities, and its robust frozen cadaveric specimen procurement program, the Bioskills Education Center provides a high-fidelity environment in which: 1) the effects of simulation training on achievement of learning objectives and on patient outcomes are studied; and 2) new interventional approaches are studied in pilot fashion and developed into full-scale research programs.

Department of Population Health. Faculty and staff of the Department are available to assist members of the clinical departments in designing and implementing outcomes research on defined patient populations.

Educational Research and Scholarship Coordinating Council. The Council catalyzes initiation, implementation and dissemination of scholarly work in the area of medical education. The goal of the group is to provide resources for and peer review of any scholarly activity related to the School of Medicine’s curriculum before publication or presentation at local, regional, national or international meetings.

Page 168


Resources to assist faculty members in obtaining funding for their scholarly activities include: •

The Office of Grants and Contracts. This is the School of Medicine’s office for administration of research funding. Its mission is to: 1) promote access to extramural funding for research projects and programs; 2) provide assistance to investigators in procuring research funding; and 3) provide administrative oversight for those efforts. Its mission is articulated through four goals: 1) identify and disseminate funding opportunity information; 2) assist investigators in the development and submission of grant and contract applications; 3) educate the research community about policies, procedures, and regulations that impact the development, submission, and acquisition of research funding; and 4) oversee awards to assure appropriate stewardship.

Office for Technology Transfer. The Office supports a full range of technology transfer support services, including: 1) web-based intake and registration of invention disclosures, facilitating early assessment for mission relevance and commercial potential by its Intellectual Property Evaluation Team; 2) structuring of detailed developmental plans for select inventions with significant potential for commercialization; 3) preparation and application for patents; and 4) assistance with identification of funding and partnerships with commercial organizations. New programs in development include: 1) small technology maturation and product development grants; 2) loans to bridge the funding gap as early commercialization milestones are achieved; and 3) outsourcing of early clinical trial opportunities to sister institutions best suited to conduct the required studies resulting from the School of Medicine’s intellectual property, thus obviating potential financial conflicts of interest while facilitating clinical research and product development. Through the Feinstein Institute, the School of Medicine has entered a strategic partnership with the Cleveland Clinic to promote technology transfer not only of new products and devices, but also of new processes that affect clinical quality and effectiveness.

The following resources assist faculty members in the implementation of their scholarly work: •

Center for Learning and Innovation (CLI). The training programs of the CLI offer an array of data collection and analysis courses, presentation and writing skills workshops, project and team management courses, and core management/leadership development programs designed to nourish continued, productive scholarly activity.

Bioskills Education Center. The unique resources of the Bioskills Education Center support implementation of scholarship in surgical and other interventional educational methodology, skills acquisition, and development/application of new technologies for patient care.

Office of the Institutional Review Board (IRB). The IRB provides regulatory knowledge and support for the conduct of research involving human subjects. It also provides support services for compliance with regulations governing human subject protections in clinical research.

PREP. This is a series of CME-accredited mini-courses developed by the Office of Grants and Contracts, Office of Research Compliance, and the Institutional Review Board. The PREP is available both in a live and in a video/online format, and is offered free of charge to all students, faculty, staff, interested research collaborators, and community partners of the School of Medicine.

Page 169


To assist faculty in the preparation of their scholarly work for publication, the CLI provides courses as well as individual assistance with oral and written communication. The School of Medicine’s Office of Academic Affairs is positioned to synergistically augment faculty scholarship development through cross-school initiatives among members of the University community.

Faculty Mentorship In addition to providing the above resources to assist faculty in the development, funding, and implementation of scholarly inquiry, the School of Medicine has both a formal, required mentorship program for junior faculty and an environment conducive to establishment of informal mentored relationships. Formal mentoring for junior faculty begins upon appointment to the faculty. Each department chair is responsible for pairing each new assistant professor with a senior faculty mentor in his/her Department. This mentor guides the junior faculty member in developing a professional career plan that includes the teaching, research, and service components of being a member of an academic medical community. As the career trajectory of each junior faculty evolves, additional mentors may be identified and incorporated into a mentorship team. Faculty mentees are encouraged to review their annual selfassessments with their mentor(s) and to collaboratively design the individualized development plan whose continual tracking constitutes part of the annual review process. Mentors, however, serve no role in evaluation of their mentees. The effectiveness of the mentorship relationship is specifically evaluated as part of each annual faculty review. Because service as a mentor is viewed as an essential responsibility of the School’s senior faculty, the quality and effectiveness of the mentorship relationship constitutes a portion of the annual review of not only junior, but also senior members of the faculty. The success of the program is evaluated annually by the Vice Dean/Dean for Academic Affairs with the assistance of faculty annual review data compiled by the Office of Academic Affairs. These data are shared with each department chair and used to evaluate and improve the quality and effectiveness of the School’s faculty career development program. The physical setting of the School of Medicine is intentionally designed to be conducive to faculty gatherings, leading to informal discussions about scholarship, teaching, and learning best practices. This informal peer-to-peer mentoring not only assures that the curriculum is dynamic and current, but also promotes an environment in which junior and senior faculty members develop collaborative scholarly project ideas that extend across disciplines and include students.
