Clinical Communication Skills – 7-Station LIVE Mock OSCE – 14 Sept 2022

Be one of our students to participate in a Live Mock-OSCE on Mock-OSCE.com!

LIMITED PLACES AVAILABLE!!

A new live Mock-OSCE will run on Wednesday, 14th September (2-4 PM GMT/BST UK & Ireland timezone) and will evaluate your clinical communications skills during a live video exam. You will be formatively assessed (assessment for learning), and provided with live feedback by simulated patients/actors. The exam will help you to prepare, train and test your skills for any of your real Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs). This Mock-OSCE will include 7 diverse stations.

Registrants will participate in a series of 7 live video stations, where they will be expected to perform their role as a young healthcare professional in various different scenarios. Each registrant will be scored instantly on their clinical performance (scoresheet and CanMeds 2015 competency framework) in each of the 7 stations and will get an overall exam result together with a detailed assessment form with a written summary of the feedback. Results will be sent to the email account used to register for the Mock-OSCE.

This live Mock-OSCE is designed to act as preparation for students and young professionals who have an OSCE coming up in their medical/health science school and professionals who would like to get an objective view on the current levels of their clinical practice.

Bonus: Participants in this Mock-OSCE will have the opportunity to receive 2 Mediview Clinical Skills booklets for FREE after filling out a post-exam survey (value €23.75 each). 

The patients that will need your attention on the day include:

• Male, 24 years, has difficulty sleeping (Gastroenterology)
• Male, 45 years, enquires about ultrasound scans (Explaining Procedures)
• Female, 21 years, appears pale after collapsing (Neurology)

• Female, 46 years, has a history of menstrual problems (Gynaecology)
