Rural Clinical School Trip Finale: Rockhampton

20120509-084800.jpg

TROHPIQ is heading out to Rockhampton for our final visit to the RCS sites for 2012. We are inviting 2nd year medical students to spend a weekend up by the Capricorn coast to learn more about this clinical location for 2013.

The trip spans the weekend of June 23rd and 24th. This is the final weekend of the end-of-semester break for 2nd years. This is an excellent way to get out and see some more of the Queensland coast before getting back to work.

For the bargain price of $100 you will enjoy flights, accommodation, hospital tours, a Capricorn coast tour, and plenty of clinical education from our hosts at the RCS.

Sign up here! RSVP by Friday, May 18th for a spot.

Any questions can be directed to trips@trohpiq.org

Skills Day Success

The TROHPIQ skillsday at Herston last Saturday was a great success! More than 120 students came geared with their stethoscopes and a burning desire to gain some hands-on experience. Students rotated between 5 skills stations, which were venepuncture, cannulation, suturing, vital signs and airway management and bandaging. Each session began with a brief and succinct presentation from an experienced clinician in the relevant field. The rest of the session, students formed small groups, each led by a student tutor, and put those newly-acquired skills to practice on the mannequins. It was fantastic to see the beaming faces as students hurried on from one session to the next, and to hear their excited chatter about the skills over morning/afternoon tea. A big thank you to all the participants and the tutors!
