Course description

This course completes the Clinical Practice Program of Phase 1 of the MD program and consolidates the skills learned in MEDI7121, MEDI7122 and MEDI7221. Development of the skills from the previous courses is facilitated by exposure of the students to patients under supervision and possibly, in their own time*. The course learning activities are: Clinical Coaching, Clinical Communication Skills tutorials, and workshops in Peripheral Intravenous Cannulation and Advanced Life Support. Clinical Coaching conducted under supervision at the patient¿s bedside enables students to progress their skills in comprehensive and focused history taking, systemic and focused physical examination*, and to develop the complex clinical reasoning skills necessary to progress into Year 3. Clinical Communication Skills tutorials are dedicated skills development sessions based on difficult and challenging communication scenarios faced by medical professionals on a regular basis. * As and if COVID-19 restrictions permit.
