Assignments and Tasks for Observer

Opportunities for learning exist in many areas of the clinic. Supervisors will decide the most appropriate learning opportunity for the observer and will assign tasks accordingly. A supervisor may designate which intern can be followed by an observer. In all cases however, observers must follow their intern or LAc from intake through patient discharge, to allow for a full range of clinical experience.

In addition to observation, tasks may include, but are not limited to:

Assisting in the dispensary
Replenishing treatment room inventory
Researching clinical cases
Setting-up and/or breaking-down of treatment rooms
Assisting with treatment procedures (by invitation only)
