Course Description

Managing patients, especially when they are children, is a crucial skill for clinicians. This task becomes even more challenging when communication needs to include the parent or guardian. It is a delicate balance of art and science. To help clinicians master this skill, a course is being offered that covers various aspects of child development and behavior management in pediatric patients. The course combines didactic teaching with hands-on experience, including observing children in medical and dental settings. Virtual reality technology is also utilized to provide a realistic learning experience. By taking this course, clinicians will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively manage the healthcare needs of children and ensure their well-being.
