  1. Year 5 GP Placement Lisa Elam

  2. What Makes a Good Placement? • Introduction – need to identify learning needs of student as these are often very specific in final year, especially towards the end of the year (e.g. log-book requirements, clinical skills practice) • Clinical skills resources – availability of models e.g. gynae models, Ophthalmology head, PR model and dedicated time to practice skills with at least one opportunity to be observed. • Student-led clinics – invaluable experience for students and most feel that it is helpful in forming own management plans and thinking about Tx options • Tutorials – prescribing, childhood illness and gynaecology were topics specified as we do not have lectures/firms in these subjects yet we may still get exam questions – a good opportunity to revise

  3. Possible Improvements • More student-led clinics – at least 3 sessions per week • Lunch and Learn sessions – to fill long lunch breaks • Accessibility to internet resources (one practice provided UpToDate membership – very impressive!!)
