MM50510 Paediatrics Senior Posting (PSP) [1-2024/2025]
This Paediatric Senior Posting (PSP) is an essential part of medical education that will prepare students for the world of paediatric and beyond. This posting spans 9 weeks, during which the 8th week will be dedicated to exams, while the 9th week will provide a well deserved holiday break. The purpose of this posting is to consolidate the student’s knowledge and practical skills in managing common medical issues in paediatric patients. Throughout the posting period, students will be exposed to a wide range of paediatric cases, enabling them to develop clinical acumen, diagnostic skills and treatment strategies. Apart from that, they will learn to approach each case with an ethical perspective, recognizing the unique vulnerabilities and needs of paediatric patients. This senior posting is designed to equip the student with practical experience and confidence needed to excel as a house officer after graduation. Through lectures, students learn all must-know components of the teaching topics, and they are also encouraged to self-learn some should-know and good-to-know topics. Students take turns taking the lead in preparation and presentation of assigned subjects during small group discussions (SGD) and seminars. This allows them to practise self-learning skills, the art and etiquette of delivering medical information, and brainstorming. It is hoped that it will act as a significant stepping stone on the road to becoming a capable and compassionate medical practitioner who can provide paediatric patients with the greatest standard of care, as well as serve as inspiration for them to pursue paediatrics as their future career of choice.
