Medical Student Rotation Housing in Shreveport-Bossier, LA

It's important to have a medical student rotation housing plan in place before you start your clinical rotations. Medical school is a lot of hard work. Long nights of study, lots of caffeine and limited sleep all contribute to the intensity of your chosen profession. And, after all the schoolwork and tests during the first half of medical school, clinical rotations at Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport Hospital can be completely exhausting as well...mentally, physically and emotionally.

If you're a medical student and are looking for away rotation housing options in the Shreveport, LA or Bossier City, Louisiana area, you're in the right place. Or, if you are part of a VSAS (Visiting Student Learning Opportunities) program in the area, we can assist with your rental needs. Shreveport Bossier Corporate Housing caters to medical school students and wants your experience in our Southern city to be rewarding.

Medical school student explanations

What are clinical rotations?

Clinical rotations usually occur during the last two years of medical school. The first two years involve extensive study in a school setting. Each rotation is designed to give med students a taste of what that area of medicine is like. The length of a rotation will vary depending on the med school, but could be around a month long.

Why are clinical rotations done in cities away from the medical school?

Some medical students choose to do away rotations in a city away from the medical school they are attending, such as in Shreveport-Bossier, LA. This option can be good for students interested in a field of medicine that’s better developed somewhere else and those wanting to boost their residency applications. Students need to make sure to discuss all possible options with doctors, peers and other medical professionals in the specialty area of medicine to get advice and feedback.

Is a medical school student a doctor?

No. A medical school student has not attained status as a doctor until after graduating from med school.
