Both - I expect my rotating inpatient students to have a baseline knowledge of kinetics for staples like vanco, aminoglycosides, and warfarin.
I'll spend a few days giving them the practical/quick and dirty way it's actually done then hone in on the clinical judgment aspect of it (aka treat the patient, not the number kinda thing).
By week 6, I expect full proficiency in the whole process such that I just have to sign my name to the chart docs.
Most of my students will start residency (or, less commonly now, staffing) just needing a week to learn the local protocols and quirks
Unfortunately, I have to contend with a) having students with a poor baseline or b) poor capacity to incorporate what I'm teaching.
