Complementary and Alternative Medicine Issues in Undergraduate Medical Education
The CAM in UME Project is a Canadian medical education initiative. Its overarching objective is to facilitate educating undergraduate medical education (UME) students about issues related to patients’ use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM).* The project is not an endorsement of CAM; it is not about teaching medical students skills to practice any complementary therapy. Its development was based on the rationale that physicians should be prepared to practice medicine in an environment where CAM may be used by their patients in combination with conventional treatments.
