It is important that the literature supporting the safety of supervised trainee practice is also promoted in order to counterbalance any potential concerns that might detract from trainee operating opportunities.
Independent variables were a range of patient, trainee, practice, consultation and educational factors.
Clinical faculty assessed trainee practice on clinical practice of six sets of tasks: patient history, physical examination, laboratory tests, diagnosis, treatment, and patient/caregiver education.
The clinical faculty teams: 1) recorded information on patients as well as trainee practice so accurate patient information was available, and 2) interrupted the assessment after the trainee completed the patient history and physical examination.
There are three potential explanations for the absence of effects on these sets of tasks: 1) the intervention was not effective, 2) trainee practice on these tasks was higher at baseline than on patient history and physical examination, and had less room for improvement, and 3) the full effects were not measured because of the structure of the clinical assessment.
Communication partner training programs for aphasia generally incorporate the use of a practical session where trainees practice communicating with a person who has aphasia.
These were followed by half-day practical experience at a health facility, where the trainees practiced providing PNC with TB screening as well as the appropriate use of PNC and TB registers.
Among the dividends are a barking sergeant, Dap (Nonso Anozie), and a giant geodesic-dome-like room in which trainees practice in zero gravity.
It features wall-to-wall mats (washed each morning with chlorine), and there was no air-conditioning to absorb the humidity — of which there was plenty, even before the trainees, practicing their headlocks, chicken wings, and leg attacks, began to sweat.
