Family Practice Curriculum in Neurology

Family Practice Curriculum in Neurology is a collaborative effort by neurology and familypractice faculty. It focuses on developing primary care skills in evaluation and management ofcommon neurological problems.

The curriculum is the result of extensive dialogue between neurologists and family physicians to ensure the material meets the needs of both disciplines. Chapters are co-authored by neurologists and family physicians.

Primary care faculty may use the CD-ROM to guide curriculum development or supplement an existing curriculum. Residents may use the program for independent study, using the brief self-assessment at the end of the chapter. Community neurologists may have the program in their offices for residents to review common problems during rotations.
