The Emergency Department at Queens Medical Centre is one of the busiest in Europe seeing on average 550-600 patients per day, making it one of the best places to gain knowledge and experience in medicine preparing you to start as an F1 Doctor.
Overview
This placement offers experience in Emergency Medicine providing you with the knowledge and skills you will need to become and F1 Doctor and regularly receives excellent feedback from students
DREEAM will be your main hub during your Emergency Department (ED) placement. Throughout the placement we will incorporate teaching and simulation sessions based on what you want to get out of the placement, the teaching will be delivered by ED registrars, ED consultants and ED teaching fellows, allowing them to use their knowledge and experience in case based discussions
Your safety is our first priority at DREEAM and, as a result, students will only be timetabled to 'cold' (non-COVID) areas of the Emergency Department. You will be encouraged to be part of the team to make the most of your clinical experience. In the classroom we will use small group teaching sessions as well as teaching from our registrars and consultants. All of our classrooms are equipped to provide remote access for distance learning.
DREEAM is the home of the Take Aurally podcast series which supports your curriculum.
