Clinical Education Offices Resources
There are also limited numbers of neurological examination kits, copies of the AMH, textbooks and Physical Examination DVDs available in the clinical education offices.

Material for the course will also be provided through the dedicated medical curriculum website:

MyUni

Various resources can be found on the MyUni website, under year 3 clinical skills.

There are numerous teaching and learning methods used, with the emphasis on active learning methods including, but not limited to: lectures, bedside tutorials, case presentations, case write-ups, other sessions in hospital and outside sessions. There will be self-directed research and/or study. 

Clinical Learning
The core element of the clinical program is learning from patients seen on the wards. Students must see patients in pairs and should see at least one patient per week per pair. It is expected one student takes the entire history and perform a physical examination on the patient while the other student observes. The following week roles will be reversed

Case Write-Ups:
The examining student will then submit a case write-up by the end of the day. Students will be expected to enter their details and the patients’ details on the sign-off sheet for every case write up that they hand in to ensure patient confidentiality and to authenticate the patient. Students are encouraged to take notes even when acting as the observer, so as to provide feedback to their colleague.

Case write ups can be submitted in hand written or typed format. Failure to submit a case write up will lead to an automatic E grade band for the relevant case write up.

Oral Presentations:
Students will be rostered to small group tutorials in which they will present a patient they have seen on the wards. This will then lead to a discussion on various aspects of the case, including formulating a problem list with differential diagnoses and demonstrating clinical reasoning to support differential diagnoses. Some time may be spent discussing an appropriate management plan. Time will also be spent on discussing presentation skills such as communication skills/ format and chronology of presentation/ amount of relevant detail to include etc. The aim of the oral presentations is to introduce students to what will be expected of them on ward rounds in their clinical years.

Bedside Tutorials:
Students will have a bedside tutorial most weeks, where they will meet as a small group with a clinical tutor (intern, resident, registrar or consultant) to see patients and develop techniques in physical examination and history taking.

Checklists for components of specific physical examinations are included in the handbook all students receive at the beginning of their rotation. There will be timetabled topics to be covered each week – see the list for your Hospital.

Lectures:
Each week students may receive a lecture/s regarding that week’s specific learning objectives. The lecture may be given by their specific Clinical Education Lecturer or other academic/clinical staff

Off-site clinical activities:
All students will be rostered to attend a number of sessions outside of their main hospital site:
•    Adelaide Health Simulation & Skills Centre simulation session- this half day morning session will cover ECG lead placement, basic life support, venipuncture technique and sharps safety.

Pre-reading:
Pre-reading is required (see MLTU website)
In the afternoon you will see a patient with your usual partner and perform case write-ups at RAH. Hand up the following week to your usual lecturer.

•    GP rotation – 2 consecutive Tuesdays of your clinical skills time will be spent in a General Practice setting.
•    Hampstead Rehabilitation Centre – you will be exposed to the challenges of living with spinal injury.
•    Shine Workshop – sexual health history and intervention will be covered in this session
•    Eye (ophthalmology) OPD – visits at TQEH and RAH
•    Ear (ENT) OPD visits – at RAH, MPH and TQEH
•    Vascular 'round robin' at TQEH – 2 sessions

On most days students will be expected to arrive at 8.30 a.m. and stay until 5.00 p.m. not including personal study and preparation time. In Years 1-3, the standard total student workload for 24 units is 48 hours a week.

The structure of the Year 3 Clinical Skills Program will be provided and discussed at the start of the program and is discussed in detail in the student handbook (provided to students on the first day of their rotation).

All students will be allocated to a metropolitan hospital. Although allocated to one hospital students may need to travel to other hospitals and places for specialty sessions.  

All students must ensure that they have a valid criminal history clearance (CHC), and the student should have the original with them on the first day of term. Please check to ensure that your certificate is valid for the entirety of Year 3.  You should also be aware that you will need to ensure that you have a valid certificate prior to commencing Year 4.

Three-yearly checks
Legislation requires that all students who, as part of their program, undertake activities such as internships or research projects involving children or adults who are ill, elderly or vulnerable, must demonstrate that they have an 最新糖心Vlogn criminal history clearance which will be current for the duration of that activity. Information on specific requirements for individual clinical placements will be provided by the placement coordinator.

A criminal history clearance is an assessment of an individual's criminal history and is part of the legislated (Child Protection Act and Aged Care Act) risk management requirements of organisations where children or vulnerable adults may be present. Students must ensure the criminal history clearance will be valid for the duration of the placement (for example, the three years should not finish during the placement).

Students that obtained National Clearance at the beginning of 2013 before the new child, aged person and vulnerable person requirement was introduced, will not be required to obtain the new three-streamed Criminal History Clearance immediately. 'Old' National clearance(s) will be accepted for a period of three years before new Criminal History Clearance is required. Please refer to this location for further information:

Students are advised to read in detail the information in the Year Level Assessment Document - Part A and Part B. Students will be expected to be aware of the contents of these documents and to abide by the requirements as stated. Students should note that requirements for professional behaviour standards are set out in the year level assessment documents. As medical students, you are registered with the Medical Board of 最新糖心Vlog.  Students are required to maintain the expectations of the professionalism standards and associated behaviours required of the profession.

Students should note that in addition to integrated exams as set out in the year level assessment documents, there are formative and summative tasks which must be completed. There are also attendance requirements which must be met.

Assessment and the assessment methods used for the medical program will be based on the objectives for: Case Based Learning (CBL) cases (supplied after each case), Clinical Skills (supplied in handbook and as posted online on the Bulletin Board), lectures (supplied in lecture material), MPPD (supplied in handbook), Resource sessions (supplied with resource session notes).

Complete assessment requirements for the MBBS Program are set out in the year level assessment documents distributed at the start of each year.

In this course, students will also be assessed on the following:

Professional Behaviour
•    Attendance (95% rule applies)
•    Punctuality
•    Work load management and ability to adhere to deadlines
•    Display active engagement with clinical skills activities

•    Maintaining a high level of confidentiality at all times.

Medical Competence
•    Case write-ups- 4 to be completed in each semester, including: •    GP reflection
•    Oral Case presentations (formative)
•    Bioskills Training – satisfactory

Material covered during the Year 3 Clinical Skills course will also be tested during mid-year and end-of-year written examinations as well as end of year OSCE examinations.

In Semester I, at least four case write-ups will be collected for Formative Assessment and in Semester II each student will select two case write-ups for Summative Assessment as well as another at least two formative case write-ups.

Complete assessment requirements for the MBBS Program are set out in the year level assessment documents distributed at the start of each year.

As outlined above

Grades for your performance in this course will be awarded in accordance with the following scheme: GS4 Non-graded pass.

For the purpose of feedback to students a banded result will be provided for each course and examination. This result will not appear on students’ academic transcripts.

Bands of achievement are:
A Above expected competency for year level
B Clearly at expected competency for year level
C Just reaches expected competency for year level
D Below expected competency for year level
E Far below expected competency for year level

The MBBS Program has a regular program of evaluation.  In addition, student representatives are appointed to MBBS committees and are encouraged to report on issues of importance to students.
