This document discusses effective clinical and practical skill teaching. It emphasizes the importance of skill education due to growing mistrust in the medical profession and increased emphasis on performance. There are various types of skills and steps to skill acquisition, including direct exposure and teaching at the workplace using real patients with consent. Simulation and skill labs are important for teaching as they bridge basic science and clinical teaching by imitating reality in a safe environment to practice and receive feedback before working with real patients.

30. Teaching Skill at Workplace
• Direct exposure to patient in ward, Operation
theater, Laboratory etc is important and can not
be simulated.
• Before starting direct teaching on patients it is
better to start with simulate patient-Role playing
• Patient should be briefed before teaching and
his/her consent taken

31. -
• Group of 2-5 students should be taught at a time
• Students are expected to behave professionally
• Students should be briefed in the beginning
about what they are expected to do. Learning
goal & objective should be framed before
teaching

32. -
• Facilitator (Teacher)helps to relieve anxieties
of patient & students participating in the
session
• At the end of examination facilitator should
assess the students, discuss with them 7 give
feedback

33. Work places of teaching
Important work places for teaching include:-
• OPD & Evening clinic
• Hospital wards
• Operation theater
• Clinical investigation unit
• Physiotherapy, Social service, other allied
departments

34. -
• Community visit
• Medical record unit
• Workshop, clinical conference, Task based
learning
• Standardized patient (Simulated)

35. Why Work place skill ?
• Provides foundation of learning all other skill
• Provides a cornerstone for life long learning
• Education, training and career options are
limited without their essential work place skill

36. -
• No Skill lab/ Simulator can prove workplace
experience
• You have in mild the consequences(fear) of
error which in lacking in skill lab or simulator

45. Skill Lab
• Skill Labs are Bridge between basic science
and ward clinical teaching
“A situation or environment created to

• Skill lab Imitate reality
• Offers limitless opportunity to go wrong which
is not possible in real patient
• Provides corrective feedback as a guide to
future action.
• Skill can be assessed in objective &
reproducible manner
• Rarely encountered clinical situation may be
simulated
