What is GMED4003 about?

This unit builds on the knowledge, skills and attitudes developed over the previous four years of the course in a series of work based clinical placements with an emphasis on pre-intern training to be fully work ready on graduation. Students will develop a competent level of practice demonstrating skill development and an integrated body of knowledge derived from the physical, biological, behavioural and social sciences. Students will show empathy for patients and have recognition of their own limitations. The placements will enable students to integrate health promotion and disease prevention with the management of illness and injury as well as give consideration to patient safety and quality of care. In the unit, students will learn to practise with due regard to available resources and cost effective measures in a manner which encourages patients to assume increasing responsibility for their own health and to participate in decisions about their health care. Students will understand the need for lifelong learning in the practice of medicine and medical education including further training and medical research.
