TLDR
How SRs have worked at UCLMS are discussed, and how they contribute to the resilience and wellbeing of today's medical students and tomorrow’s doctors are discussed.
Abstract
Reflective practice Schwartz Rounds (SRs) were introduced to University College London Medical School (UCLMS) in 2014, the first medical school internationally to introduce SRs specifically for undergraduates. In the intervening 5 years, SRs have become a feature of the medical degree (MBBS) syllabus, as the next generation of doctors acquires skills to manage the pressures associated with a lifelong career in medicine. This piece will discuss how SRs have worked at UCLMS, and how they contribute to the resilience and wellbeing of today’s medical students and tomorrow’s doctors.
