Rural Placement
This course is part of an community based, longitudinal, integrated year of clerkship, clinical placement and training in rural hospitals and clinical settings. This comprised experiencing and learning about community, emergency, inpatient and specialist paediatrics, that follows the core competencies of the Department of Paediatrics fifth year medical program. Each student is based in an ARCS rural training centre for the two semesters of the full year. These will be clinical attachments, where the student will be part of the clinical unit providing patient care in general practice, and hospital inpatient and emergency care. This includes a two week rural specialist paediatric intensive placement at Pt Augusta hospital. Students will be responsible to the unit Registrar and Consultant. Students will take part in all unit activities i.e. acute and elective admissions, outpatient sessions and other ambulatory care, operating theatre sessions, unit audit and teaching meetings, etc.

Throughout the semester, there are scheduled ePBL tutorials with a specialist paediatrician and facilitated small group tutorials with a community doctor with paediatric expertise.They will involve learning and practice of clinical skills in taking histories in Paediatrics, and undertaking physical examination of children at different ages. The tutorials will provide teaching around the core competencies in paediatric knowledge, skills, attitudes and attributes, expected of a fifth year medical student. These sessions will also involve specific aspects of Paediatric Medicine, Paediatric Surgery, Child and Adolescent Mental Health, Paediatric Emergency Care, Resuscitation, Pathology, neonatology & practical skills.

Structured Learning Program
Whilst on placement, a formal paediatric learning program will be delivered. This course will take a ‘flipped classroom’ approach to learning. The WCH Paediatric Competencies inform this approach which consists of a high yield online interactive module or video lecture followed by a problem based learning tutorial facilitated by a paediatrician.

RESUS4KIDS
Students will undertake the ‘RESUS4KIDS’ programs as part of a week-long intensive mid-year workshop in a rural location.

Learning in Child and Adolescent Mental Health (iLAB)
Students will add to their knowledge of child and adolescent mental health by:
• Learning how to take a developmental and psychiatric history from children and their families
• Being able to assess mental health symptoms in children and adolescents, and generating a relevant management plan
• Gaining an understanding of the inter-relationship between the mental health of children and adolescents and other health problems, family problems and social circumstances
• Developing a working knowledge of other health and welfare agencies
• Gaining confidence in approaching clinical situations that contain an element of risk e.g. self-harm and suicidality
• Developing an approach to interviewing young people and their families with a focus on enhancing therapeutic alliance and obtaining accurate historical information.

Structure:
• Students will have an opportunity to practice interviewing and generating management plans for young people facing emotional challenges in a simulated clinical environment.
• Structured feedback and on-the-fly review of interview footage is undertaken after each session to enhance skill development for students.
• Seminars in child and adolescent mental health will cover common issues in developmental mental health and illness.

Placement Supervisor - Final Assessments
The ‘Summative Clinical Assessment' form is provided on the first day of the student’s attachment. Guides to performance (Clinical Knowledge and Clinical Skills) are also provided. Forms should be given to the placement supervisor (Unit Consultant or Registrar) at the end of the placement, and the supervisor will complete these with the student, using the guide provided. Forms will be signed by the supervisor and the student, and will be submitted by the student to MyUni. If a student receives a Borderline/ Unsatisfactory assessment from a supervisor, they should discuss remediation with their Clinical Academic at the earliest opportunity.

Observed Clinical Assessment (OCA)
This assessment is undertaken with a clinician. Each student will be observed performing a 10-minute clinical short case. These cases could be, for example, examination of the chest of a child with asthma, or examination of the abdomen of a child with an enlarged liver. It is expected that students will demonstrate competence in their examination technique and be able to detect important signs such as wheeze or hepatomegaly. Assessments will encompass the domains of Clinical Examination technique, and identification and interpretation of clinical signs. Feedback regarding performance in this assessment will be provided in the final clinical skills tutorial.

OSCE (Medical & Surgical)
The Medical OSCE consists of 5 stations each 5 minutes in duration testing core competencies in Paediatric Medicine. There may be a combination of 4 active stations (with examiners) and 1 static station (written responses to questions).

The Surgical OSCE consists of 3 stations each 7 minutes in duration on Paediatric surgical topics. There may be a combination of 2 active stations (with examiners) and 1 static station (written responses to questions).

This assessment consists of participation in 7 simulated patient consultations and video debriefs and a 1 hour online written exam.

Details will be made available on MyUni.

SELT forms will be given to each student on the last day of their attachment.  Students may also be asked to fill in SELT forms on a particular tutor or lecturer.  

An iLab evaluation form will be given to all students on the last day of their attachment.  

Students are encouraged to meet with the Clinical Studies Officer if they have any problems or queries while on their Paediatrics attachment.

Information regarding 最新糖心Vlog and Hospital OH&S policies and Incident Reporting is given to each student on their Introductory Day.
