الممارسة السريرية التخصصية المتكاملة 2

The course will continue using the same model of weekly themes. There will be 3 rotations (Placements) in the course over 12 weeks, for each of them a weekly announced theme that encompass several clinical cases and problems will be opened to all students as online learning content that is defined by a week ILOs and a week syllabus (topic list, therapeutic list and skill list is in the Appendices of this specification document). Students are expected to go through the online content on their own and approach staff responsible for the week if they encounter any difficulty. Students' learning activities are managed through two types of activities: Centrally Defined Teaching and Learning Activities and Clinical Placements activities.
Evidence of acquisition of skills should be collected by the student in a logbook.
A-Centrally Defined Teaching and Learning Activities
1-Two 2-hours-sessions that link to the online content and weekly theme; the CBCL session during which the students in a team-based learning environment will be guided through a clinical reasoning discussion of a new case by an expert; and PCC session during which variable topics that relate to patient centeredness of clinical practice will be delivered either as a large
interactive workshop or small groups activities. Additionally, in some weeks Students-led Guided Objective Tutorial will be held with the purpose to deliver predetermined selected parts of the curriculum content through a well-planned Reciprocal Peer to Peer Teaching (peer-mediated strategy), in which students alternate between the role of tutor and tutee and take on a teaching role in classroom under expert guidance.
2- Skill lab session for 2 hours and lead by a staff member in small groups with content that is predetermined to cover essential skills as listed in the skill list of the specialties.
3- Clinical debrief tutorial for 1-3 hours weekly and led by an experienced clinician. During this session students will bring the experiences gained from the field and discuss among themselves and with their tutor. Several activities are done with the aims to support clinical reasoning abilities of the students and to recognize and complete knowledge gaps.
B-Clinical Placements
Students will rotate through three clinical placements periods, each period is four weeks (one in Neuropsychiatry clinical services, one in Musculoskeletal clinical services, and one in Special Senses clinical services). Students will continue as previous courses in year 4 and 5to be part of
the clinical teams in hospitals, in order to integrate more fully into these, students will be required to spend the majority of their time on the wards and clinics. A predetermined minimum standards are required to pass the placement successfully that will include predetermined
attendance and activities in the field. During the course and mainly during the time spent in the field, students will be required to
formulate appropriate differential diagnoses, develop their knowledge, application and use of investigations, understand the principles of a holistic approach to patient management and learn how to work within a multidisciplinary team. Having become competent in clerking, students
will be expected to develop clinical reasoning skills within the clinical environment. During the clinical placement, students will receive a staff led clinical teaching.
C-Evidence of clinical skills acquisition (the Logbook)
Predetermined minimum requirements should be collected in every placement in a student logbook using certain forms. These requirements are distributed between the different skills that student should practice and provide evidence of going through them.
