Medical students have few opportunities to lead patient groups during their clinical year. During the psychiatry clerkship, they are group observers and do not have the skills to lead psychotherapy or treatment groups. This report describes a bingo group led by medical students on an inpatient psychiatry unit. The group provides leadership opportunities for students lacking advanced group training, enables student integration into the ward, and reduces stigma. Patients find it easier to engage and benefit from socialization and improved cognitive and ego functioning. The group also provides continuity of care when staffing changes. Clerkship directors are encouraged to consider such a program. .
