Managing real clinical problems in an authentic clinical environment drives students' intrinsic motivation and should prepare them more effectively for work in practice at graduation. These models do, however, present challenges, particularly around consistency of delivery and quality assurance management. The community-based model developed and refined at the University of Nottingham School of Veterinary Medicine and Science is different from those used elsewhere. Small groups of students spend two-week blocks in the premises owned by third parties in which they complete their clinical training. In all core clinical teaching sites, the School places approximately one member of the clinical staff per group of students, but students are taught by both School staff and non-School staff employed by the third party. Over the first 13 years of delivering clinical teaching in this model, a process of \"active rotation management\" has evolved to ensure consistency of the student experience across all the sites used. The challenges and issues presented by this model has led to the development of a series of \"dos\" and \"don'ts\" that inform the success of the model. Based on surveys of how well the students and employers feel rotations have prepared them for practice, this model seems to represent an effective method of delivering appropriate clinical teaching.</p>","PeriodicalId":17575,"journal":{"name":"Journal of veterinary medical education","volume":" ","pages":"e20240039"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143255995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In response, the Good Practices in Animal Research (BPEA, \"Boas Práticas em Experimentação Animal\" in Portuguese) platform was established as a contemporary educational tool for training in laboratory rodent experimental techniques. Designed to replace traditional animal-centered teaching methods, BPEA provided scientifically accurate video content tailored for veterinary medicine students. Mastering animal handling skills is crucial for veterinary students, and BPEA addressed this by offering video demonstrations of experimental procedures, allowing visualization and confidence-building before live animal interaction. The platform's video library covered diverse procedures, such as substance administration and blood collection, accompanied by protocols, images, and diagrams for enhanced learning. The intuitive menu facilitated easy navigation, enabling students to access content aligned with their needs. Website traffic analysis demonstrated widespread usage, with users from Portuguese-speaking countries being prominent. Integration of BPEA into the Laboratory Animal Science course at the University of São Paulo garnered positive student feedback, highlighting its value as a supplementary resource for bridging theoretical and practical learning. While BPEA showed promise in promoting ethical teaching practices and reducing animal stress, it could not entirely replace hands-on training. A balanced approach between video-based learning and live demonstrations is necessary for a comprehensive learning experience. In conclusion, BPEA was a valuable resource contributing to laboratory animal science education, aligning with ethical standards and benefiting students, researchers, and animal care professionals.

This Best Practice report addresses the following questions: 1. What foundation of knowledge in community and shelter medicine is needed? (Five curricular pillars: animal welfare, vulnerable animals, spectrum of care, well-being, and cultural humility). 2. How should programs be structured? (Mandatory, integrated, and scaffolded curriculum). 3. What are the pedagogical goals? (Transformational learning).

Veterinary students experience high levels of psychological distress, particularly during transitional periods such as clinical training.

To address this gap, Compassion Fatigue Rounds (CFR) were introduced. CFR is a proactive, integrated intervention within one clinical clerkship program. The rounds address compassion fatigue, burnout, and self-care practices through a small group discussion facilitated by the clinical instructor. An evaluation of CFR was conducted through anonymous online student surveys administered between March and September 2023. Following CFR, students self-reported an increase in knowledge, confidence, and preparedness regarding the mental health challenges in veterinary medicine. Students overwhelmingly reported positive experiences, pointing to the potential effectiveness of CFR in educating, engaging, and supporting clinical students on mental health well-being.
