Welcome to the RMEA Longlook Program

Longlook is what the medical education literature refers to as a Longitudinal Integrated Clerkships (LICs).

LICs have the following common core elements:

Medical students participate in the comprehensive care of patients over time.
Medical students have continuing learning relationships with these patient's clinicians
Medical students meet, through these experiences, the majority of the year's core clinical competencies across multiple disciplines longitudinally.

The Longitudinal Integrated Clerkship (LIC) model, is influential nationally and internationally, completely restructures students’ (and their patients’) experience of caregiving. This patient-centred redesign eliminates the traditional, short “block rotations.” Students see patients through all phases of diagnosis and treatment, including hospitalizations, discharge follow-up and even home visits.
