title: Hands-On Sports Medicine Training for Residents.
abstract: In brief: Primary care sports medicine is a rapidly growing field of interest; however, there are relatively few training programs in this field. The author describes the development of a one-month training program at the University of California, Davis, Medical Center. The education strategies used in the program include clinical teaching (50%), on-the- field education (20%), experiential learning (20%), and didactic instruction (10%). The most innovative part of the program is the experiential learning component, through which students learn basic sports medicine skills by actively participating in sports, exercises, strength training, and a fitness program.
