As you can imagine, it takes CAMC quite awhile to do all of these activities with all of their incoming residents and not everyone can be working with the standardized patients at the same time.

In her institution, observers must sign a release before shadowing. Because the interns are not employees yet, they have to abide by the observer policy.
