Code Status Discussions: A Standardized Patient Workshop for Senior Medical Students
Our workshop increased the confidence of fourth-year medical students in conducting CSDs. This session successfully implemented simulations that used SPs for training a large group of fourth-year medical students bound for different medical specialties. This is the first workshop of its size and breadth, and it may serve as a standardized curriculum for other institutions wishing to formally train medical students to conduct CSDs.
