Description

Hi guys!

In this session, we will cover arguably one of the most important duties of a resident doctor in the NHS- how to excel in clerking. We will also discuss common terms that are mentioned on wards such as the concept of DNAR, ATSP and the importance of the NEWS scoring system. Another important topic is ceilings of care which all doctors need to be aware of.

We hope this session will be beneficial for you and look forward to meeting you.
