Your log book
1- Introduction
The aim of this book is to give you a guide to the expectations for each item. It will be a guide for both you and your teachers to what you should be seeing and doing.
It will give you a list of the important topics that you should think about and should be covered in:
1. Clinical or practical sessions
2. Tutorials
3. Self-directed learning (SDL)
For each item there is also a list of
1. Clinical conditions or Practical sessions to be seen or attended
2. Practical procedures to be seen and done
Remember
This document is only a guide. It is not an exhaustive list. It is not just a checklist to score points. It is a guide to encourage you to read and learn more. This book is for your benefit. It will form a record of your clinical training and experience.
2 - SupervisorsNominated Staff members for each unit and activity to sign the logbook items
