society, Um, lonely that during the night in pandemic of virtual conferences and webinars became much, much more popular, Um, we were also able to host weapon us with attendees from around the block. I'm sure you can recognize Amanda who's was in the picture here. So I was on Phoenix Meta. Um, you know, we worked really closely on one of these weapons that we were hosting talking about international medical graduates. And how can they apply into the residency programs in seven different countries around the world? Not only that, it's a doctor in the U. K. C. B building is one of the things that they do encourage trainings to do, um, especially to build up on your research skills and port for your skills. For example, when I listen, option is an awesome guy. Any trainee, you're expected to also upkeep with your skills and laproscopy or basic surgical skills. Um, not only that, they also focus a lot on whether you're able to present ah, a conference so it doesn't have to be, Ah, big conference, even presenting at your local or meetings or um, having regular teaching sessions on what you've found in your in your research is also quite useful. Um, in regards to presentation skills. Not only that, I think they also emphasize a lot on quality improvement projects and being able to do audits A swell in the UK Um, so they're very, very heavy and very keen on on on trainees being able to do que eyepiece, um, and implement guidelines or suggest improvements to the department of swell Key. Who? Yeah, and, um, besides the heavy stuff, um, I also do really enjoy spending time visiting wheels when I was back in Cardiff, Um, during my foundation program years, um, and you had some lovely pictures off places that you can visit in South Wales. So the top left is really be where they're beautiful, beautiful sunflowers that come up towards the end of spring approaching summer. Um, very, very photogenic place to take pictures. Um, you know, a definite definitely recommend. The second picture is in 10, but if I'm not mistaken, but you can rent a kayak and roll out into the sea and have this beautiful paste. Oh, buildings surrounding us. Well, since very very. But if we have some fish and shakes, uh, next to the beach. Not only that, you can actually quite famous for trails, um, where you walk on for hours and hours, enjoying the green celeries in the UK, And you may be lucky me come across some horses a swell along the way. And no, that's for you much. Um, what we do as a doctor in the UK, um, thank you very much for Phoenix minute for inviting me and presenting the talk. Thank you. Know, I totally understand with the burgundy stethoscope, because every time around placement and you see someone who is also an f one, um, on patient with that drug in the sense go. But like, yes, um, card, if I know that I don't even have to ask you so fun. Was the movement from Cardiff to Manchester? Oh, um, I would have to say these quite, um well is more right moving your whole life because I wasn't coming from medical school five years past few areas or get a seven years. I imagine the amount off things that you build up in your room over bureau seven years. So I had to do all of purging and sharing a wheel off things that I don't need anymore. Um, and I think I'm not picking around, like two or tree trips off, bringing everything and moving. Um, yeah. I mean, relocation isn't that Never easy, but give it, like, two weeks, and then you'll be fine. Once you start out, all of the people work, like driving licenses and passports. And B R p is because you have to change your address on on all these important documents. A small Yeah. How is, um, um, Obsessive got me going. Oh, I would say is busy, busy, busy. But it's a first in a learning cough. A lot of things to learn. And very, very exciting and specialty. Um, deliver babies and see women. Oh, that's always the pressure. Like senior babies, That that's a part of the job. Yeah. Yeah, it is. It is. And always recommend for people. Go join up. Single. Any. Yeah. Thank you so much, Doctor Richard. Um, let me just check. Okay, um, days he sent a question saying, How is it? How easy is it to get to know all the F ones when you start? Oh, um, I would say in regards to local F one C is less able to start walking in a particular hospital, and and normally they would start like a what step group. Or, um, if you feel that you're unable to, uh, if you want to meet out of half once a swell, you could There's always, um, like a representative for doctors in initially Naree um, which the B M E works very closely with. If I'm not mistaken because when I was back in Cardiff, I was the Welsh Junior Doctors Committee representative. So we work very closely with all of the June it up this in in veils. Um and I think, yeah, getting in touch with your local wreck or the B M E Z. They they often put you in contact with other fellow colleagues. A swell, or you just meet them in the break room during lunch. Sometimes that's a that's a good way to start a conversation, Uh, with, uh, the F one says, You know, it's nice, isn't because you're only positions could just starting out. So there's obviously always something to born over on, but I've had that's also like Facebook groups. I think, for F one so they cannot get to know each other before they start on day. Yeah, Yeah, Facebook groups. That must be it. May if if you're feeling lost, your BMP is it frequent for It's what you put in contact with the local Rex or, um, the representative for the general this committee way. Have one question from Amanda thing dot Thank you dot Purity era of the talk. How did you find adapting to UK life coming from another country and you hand on staying in the UK for the long one. Oh, that's a good question. And actually, that is a question I asked myself all the time. Do I want to stay? Do I want to leave? Um, I Was it currently, um, I would looking at the training pathway, and especially in the UK, they're very structured pathways on How do you approach consultancy? Um and I think that's one off the books that I see in working the you case. That is because of the structure, pathways and a half in place in comparison to them from actually originally from Malaysia. Ah, the is quite difficult. I would say to get the train number because the competition ratios is it's very high. That's why we have a lot of medical graduates back home and being able to get the training position malicious, actually quite difficult. Um, and they don't also have, like, a strict process is what you have here in the UK very transparent your pride based on your merits and ah, your interviews as well. So, um, in regards to read up, I'm going to stay on a diet moment. I would say yes until I complete training. Um, but after training, um, I think I'll really value in my situation then again to see what else they If I don't have a family or a husband by then, maybe I'll go back to Malaysia and leave the single life, um, and take care of my parents, I guess. But yeah. So it's, um yeah, I guess for now, I would say you're definitely will continue to stay on it. You can tell the complete money training Do you ever consider unless they're going to work, work abroad light for like, a year or a couple of months? Not that's not like somewhere else, like Malaysia. Oh oh, the UK everywhere else in the UK, whichever that is a very, very good good question cause I, um there is so much to learn when you when you go to a different country and, you know, just work for even even for a few months or a few weeks. It's always something to learn when you work in a different um uh, environmental, different country. So, yeah, there's definitely some books in in doing that. And, um, if I wasn't on on a visa, I would definitely would like to go of the travel the wall and and help out in regards. Still providing care as a doctor by thinking, being on schoolwork of the social stuff he said, I'm currently now on. It can be quite difficult in the sense off how long can be for if the country do extra work and stuff it, it says. In the sense it's a bit more restrictive. But if let's say if I will be a permanent resident or if I have definitely have to remain the process off going to a different country for for a few weeks off for a few months, um, to do an elective for to do ah, fellowship, I think that would be much easier once I have a different visas status? Yeah, but for now, I think it's quite difficult. Yeah, way. Have a couple more questions. Uh, says, do doctors in the UK get back vacation time? A swell. And how long is it? Oh, yes. Definitely. Um, yeah. If not, we'll all be. But now, is it? We all aboard? Majority of us are going out anyway. Uh, so we do have a 27 days. Ah, year, um, for any relief. So if you're lucky enough, you can take all off the 27 days together. If you manage to stop all of your own course shifts or if you many should get a long break, that would be very, very nice. But yeah, we got 27 days, um, each year for any relief on. Does that include? Like, if you need to take emergency days? Awful eso much? Is he days off like sick leaf? I would imagine significantly something separate. So sick leave doesn't count into the Enbrel. If he's okay. On more, More question. Prius says, What would you say was the biggest challenge about the change from a medical student to a doctor? Oh, I think the biggest change will be the responsibilities that comes with it. Because I think as a medical student, like both of if I wasn't a very good medical student, and I just the ski placement is very often and I spend my time in the library reading textbooks and stuff. Um, but yeah, I think once you move on to become a doctor, you have the responsibility to care for your patients and to be attentive and to be present. When you're seeing patients, it's, Well, you can't, um, have your mind somewhere else. Been You're physically the, um and you have to call me to the long working hours a swell, um, and documentation off everything that happens for the character patients. Very, very important as well. Um, so, yeah, I think the biggest change would be the responsibility that comes with, um, having a GMC number now. And being an unofficial doctor, um, that's the biggest change. I would say Perfect. Thank you so much. I feel like I understand because we've just started placement and so on during the night. 8 to 5 or 95 0. Being difficult. Little bit. No time for anything else. other than placement. Yeah, you know. Yes. Thank you so much, Doctor Richard, for talking to us today. Um, Okay, so next up, we have Doctor Hangul A Who is going to talk to us about life in Namibia as a doctor. So it's doctor Hunger is there. Hi. You some here. Thank you. Is you're right. You turn your video on on If you have slides, some free to shadow. All right, Let me just share my screen. Love it. Can you see it yet? You need to probably get full screen. All right, just a second. It's loading and okay, I think Thank you so much. 100 over to, you know? All right. Thank you. Um, good afternoon, Teo. My name is natural car, and I'm a medical officer working in Namibia, Invented, which is the capital city of Namibia. And my talk today is about life. Is a medical doctor in a maybe a. So I just want to First of all, thank you. The entire Phoenix made team for giving me this opportunity. It's really such an honor. And I've learned so much from all the previous because that spoke on this platform s so keep up the good work, especially to the medical students. Keep up the good work, so I'll get right into it. Um, my first slide, um, basically showcases a little bit about, um, Libya. The first picture, which is a map of Africa. In red, you can see Namibia. It borders Angola, Zambia, in South Africa and on the West we have on the Atlantic Ocean. A fan, in fact, about the nebulized that it's the only country in the world where the desert meets the ocean. As you can see, the image that I placed there and then in the top right corner, he see, um, one of, ah, the hospitals in Ventricle Ventic Central Hospital. I work in catheter, a state hospital, which is basically the biggest costal in the public sector in the whole country. So it's extremely busy. We receive referrals from the smaller district hospitals in the periphery towns and country of towns and, uh, clinics. So it's a really busy hospital, and we also receive referrals from northern and Libya and basically from all around the country. So, um and next lied. Can you see it? Yeah, it's still on the same slide. Okay, let me do this? No. Sure. Why that happened. Okay, so this is kind of like a table of contents of what I'm going to talk about. Um, the first thing I'm going to talk about is, um, my journey up to this point, I, um, started. I started studying medicine in 2000 and 11. I studied at a university called Valium Medical University in China. I was 18 years old at the time, Um, very optimistic and excited to be studying medicine. Why medicine when they asked, um, I was actually contemplating whether I should study medicine or law. And I had applied to the university of kid town toe pursue a degree in law. But my mom was like, You know what? I think you're better suited for medicine, and I was like, maybe Mommy knows based. So I decided to go from medicine, and I have not regretted it since. I really feel like I'm in the right profession, and I'm very passionate about what I do. Um, So after I obtained my undergrad degree in, um 2000 and 17, and then I went on to do my internship for two years from 2018 to 2000 and 20 in Namibia, and at the end of my internship obtained my license. Um, and then I started working, is a medical officer. I'm currently my second year off emotion as we call locally. Call it. And I transferred from Northern, um, maybe active and took this year in May, and that's currently we're at work. So the next light shows a day in my life. Um, So, um, the first image is the road that I drive every morning. I do look forward to catching the sunrise when I wake up early enough to do so. Um, and I usually grab coffee when I have. If I have enough time to do so as the coffee where I get some coffee can get quite busy. It just, uh it's just one of the little things that I do, um, and is I'll talk about later. I think one should identify some things that help you with your mental health and just little things that you look forward to doing that will help you kind off kick stature. D on the first of truth. Um, so our department I work in the Department of Internal medicine specifically in the pulminology would, um I have a colleague, doctor Marianne, and go low. And, um, we both, uh, when we were kids, medical offices in the PULMONOLOGY. Would. So our department is invent fel If I can see that we have meeting starting at 7. 30 on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and then on the other days we have a ward rounds which led by the medical offices. So my responsibilities, um, as a medical officer are basically to leave the word rounds, we'll also responsible for all the seeing the interns responsible for internships, training, teaching and mentorship. Um, we're also very involved in the academic meetings where we give presentations specifically on statistics, um, mortality meetings where we discussed in depth about, um, special cases, our patients who have devised so we can all learn about learn from these cases and prevent any Essentially, it's to help us to provide a better quality of care to our patients. We also present articles based on clinical trials s so that we can practice evidence based medicine. Um, in our day to day management of our patients, we facilitate a consult and would rounds which take place about twice a week. Um, and we also are responsible for engaging are nursing stuff. If there are any problems in the ward, we we it is our responsibility to talk to them. This, this is and also just it helped and become were involved in the management of the patient because it's a it's a collective thing. It's teamwork. And the nurses also need to understand why the doctor is requesting for a certain drug why the doctor is requesting that the patient's baby propped up at 45 degrees. Um, overall, it will help with providing a bit of quality off a kid to our patients and also responsible for performing procedures such as in the pulmonology world. We perform a lot of federal taps. We're learning how to perform biopsies, long biopsies in various procedures. So it is fun. But it is also very exhausting, especially if you want top of all of that. You add 12 hour calls, which we do, um, which you can have one shift in a week or three shifts, depending on with it, so we can follow not, And if you're on call in the referral day, then it's super hectic. um, you. There's a large influx of patients, and it's a very high stress environment. Which takes me to my next line, which is what are the challenges that I place as a medical officer? As I said, Number one is, it's a high stress environment. There's a lot of patients. There's a lot going on you have to focus on. The patients have to focus on the incidence. You have to focus on the students, um, who are rotating through the Palm knowledge would he would want them to have the best experience that they can have. You want to teach them as much as you can, but if you're exhausted, if you're burned out, you're not able to do that to the best of your abilities. And, um, you have to study a swell on balsam. Make time for everything else going on in your life. Which takes me to the second point, which is juggling it all. I mean these work, which takes up majority off my time, and then there's your family family. Is my friends in basically, just relationships, be it, um, relationships. Such a Z. Yeah, romantic relationships all sorts off other things that should be interested in life, your hobbies. Whatever other areas of interest you have, you have to juggle it all. And it can be really exhausting and difficult to do. Um, for example, I missed quite a lot of big events in my family because of work. Such a zoo. Very close cousins who got married. I couldn't attend their weddings because I had to work. So it does make me sad. Um, so one really has to learn to balance it. Or, um and the third thing is that in pasta syndrome, which one of the speakers from yesterday one of the medical students touched on, which is basically, um I really smart enough of this, um I really while equipped to become a specialist one day, if that's what you're interested in doing. Um, I release cut out for this job. There are days where you're extremely discouraged and demotivated, and you wonder, what am I even doing here? But the idea is where you're like, I was definitely meant for this. Um, so it definitely is a challenge that I thought was very really And hence why I included in the slide. The fourth thing is for me personally working in a Namibia Oh, in Southern Africa. We do work in a resource limited sitting, and sometimes we don't have meaning that we don't always have the equipment or the medication that we need in order to based help our patients. And that can be very discouraging. Um, because, uh, you know that there's something available. But it's not within your patients reach either due to financial strains or a due to other factors that are beyond your control, as as a medical officer. And then the last challenge that I'd like to touch on his mental health, which a lot of the speakers also spoke about yesterday, which I think is a really challenge that not everybody talks about, because it's because of the stigma around it, and especially during the covert 19 pandemic, when it was at its peak in our country. Um, I think ah, lot of us were were extremely exhausted. People developed anxiety and depression, and we went to show how to deal with it, especially because everybody was dealing with it. And you kind of feel like Okay, um eh is dealing with it. B is dealing with it, so I should just deal with it as well. Um, so that was definitely a big challenge that I faced. All right, So the third slide would be about coping mechanisms. How did how do I deal with all these challenges? Hardware overcome these challenges. Now, I'd like to stress that I'm not perfect at doing these things, but I am working on the day to day. Um, and I know that one day I'll get to where I want to be. So the first thing is time management. There's a popular quote that says if you fail to plan, you plan to feel so what I try to do is I just on my phone, in the notes that I just write down my my weekly plan starting from Monday all the way down to Friday. Sometimes I only manage to get from Monday to Wednesday, and then on Wednesday. I see. Okay, let me finish up. My what? I want to do it first and Friday. So, like, for example, today, Sunday I know that tomorrow it's gonna be Monday. It's going to be a busy day at work. They're going to be on a lot of new patients that I haven't seen during the weekend, so I already have. My plan is to What are the topics that I want to read through tonight? Um, what time do I want to be a work? And I'm already anticipating, um, certain challenges that I expect to face drink that day. It just helps me be better prepared, um, for the day. And then, of course, you also have That's more of a short term plan. I would also I also try to have a long term plan, because when I was a medical student, I knew that I loved internal medicine. But I never thought about, um, specialization. Which university do on a specialized that, um, which area of internal medicine um, I specifically interested in I'm only now starting to think about those things. But I think if I had started thinking about them earlier as an intern or a student, um, I might have started studying or doing the necessary requirements earlier on, such as my primary exams, and I would have been studying with a different approach. Um, so it's good to have a long term plan and the shorts and plan. Um, the second thing is kind of maintaining a work like balance and mental house To what shift? Um, there's a saying by Catherine Pulsipher, which says too much of one thing can end up creating stress. Um, this is 17. Okay, this's something that no one needs in their life. But living a life in balance can provide harmony and peace. Um, so how how can one, um, overcome If you're working in a high stress environment, it's important to be intentional about maintaining a work life balance. So for me, that means be intentional about spending quality time with my friends and family. My family is in here with me. They're up north. Um, I'm in essential on a media, so I don't make it up Going to call my mom at least almost every day. Um, and, um, luckily for me, I do have friends who I work with. My son of my colleagues are my friends. But I also do try to keep in touch with my friends and just kind of get out of that work environment. Um, you could also consider therapy. I recently started seeing a therapist. Um, and it's it's been very fulfilling. Um, I also recently joined the gym. I think it's about three weeks in now, and that has also been very helpful. And help me, um, develop more discipline. And if you're a testicle, um, do something artistic. If you love to paint or even if you don't love to paint or if you don't know, um, you know you don't try it, so why not take on an art class or do something you've never done before? You be surprised, Um, it house soothing. This might be for you and just explore different hobbies. And if you know what your hobbies are, doing it like them. I'm don't just be focused on work. Make time for all the other aspects that make up. So you are. And then it's also the aspect of spirituality. I'm a Christian, so I make. I would like to make more time definitely to pray and go the judges. That also helps me take care of my mental health. The third thing is, um, a concert bility or having a safe space at work. In this picture, there's two cups of coffee. Um, the one is for me and the one belongs to love. My my colleague, who I mentioned earlier. Um, so I struggled Wake up in the morning to wake up very early, and I'm just being very really right now. So I asked my friend was like a legal apartment ology would, as I noticed, that she wakes up early. I'm also if you could wake me up in the mornings and she started waking me up at five or 5. 30 every morning, Um, so that I can start my day earlier. So why into that this lattice? Because I think it's something that's overlooked. It's okay to ask for help, and it's very important to have someone or some people whom you can turn to toe help you with, um, accomplishing your goals. So she calls me every morning at 5 30 should make sure that I'm awake. And it's also important to identify a mentors if you identify someone who you like, who you would like to be like. If you say you know what, there's Dr X y Z, who I really admire. They work ethic. I love the way that they treat their patients. I like the the character approach that person and making your mental It will have a pickle, and you will learn a lot from them. So I do try to do that as well. And the fourth thing would be to find your wife. Um, why you this profession, Um when I'm having a bad day or a bad week, Um, I try to remind myself off why I started and why I love internal medicine. And, um, that keeps me going as well. Um, in the fifth and final coping mechanism that I have listed is just breathe. It's okay to wrist. Just take life one step at a time because life is lived in intervals. Um, it's one of the PAS doctor said, um, you don't wake up one day and your specialist, it's a step by step process. So take it easy. Um, And if you make a mistake, I just test your yourself up and keep going. Um, one thing that I would like to do more office well is to travel and just get, um, being that being in a new environment, I think is also Europe. You tick is a post always being in the same place. You become open minded and you learn more about other cultures in it just brought it is your perspective. So that's one thing that I also like to do a world, Um, the next lied Yeah, is, which is the final slide is religious my closing remarks and advice to students in intense. The first thing would be to make the most off every opportunity. I always tell students coming into Ah, would that if you get a patient, you're never going to get the same exact patient again. So make the most off what you can turn out of that patient. It might be your last time seeing a patient with years. Okay, maybe not that there's some special cases that you might see. And in your career, you might only see one after, say, 10 years. It's always tell them, Make the most of every opportunity that you get to learn. Um, if you're rotating the palm in ology water, whatever addition, you in be present and, um, people active, try to learn as much as you can. It will help in the future because it skills that your team now we'll stay with you for a very long time. The second thing would be is, I said earlier to sit short and long term goals and start thinking about what your department of interest is now or really on. Ben, if you want to specialize, consult registrars, consult specialist about how they did it In what other opportunities you can. What other routes you can take just to specializing. Um, so don't wait until you get there. When you need to make a decision, Don't wait until you get to the bridge. As I said, um, if you fail to plan, you plan to feel the third thing is, um, on, uh, your patients, um, be kind to be present in the sensitive to lose your patients because your patients are human beings have come from sometimes far and wide to seek medical attention. And the last thing they want us to meet. An angry doctor, um, who seems insensitive. A lot of times they are afraid and underwear off what's happening to their bodies, and it's important to be sensitive and to show them respect. Um, and wire thing that I try to do is I try to learn my patients names from the day that they get in. I found into the wood. I found that when you address them by the names from the first day they feel recognized and seeing and like. You know what? Uh, this This, This doctor cares about me, so I'm just find different ways to bed. It'll improve the quality of care that you give to your patients. It's not just about coming about getting the diagnosis, but it's about the overall experience as a patient. Have the patient can terminal cancer, but because of the way that you treated them, um, they take it well and it's only your Your attitude towards them was reading a formal healing. So I think that that's something out like students to take home a swell, Um, the fourth is that there's no magic formula. The secret is simply hard work. So work hard now so that when you become an internal medical office, so even a specialist, you already have kind of like a hard drive off information and skills and knowledge that you can fall back on, obviously, as doctors, we never stopped studying, but, um, it's never too late to start. You feel like you don't give it your all in your earlier years, or you're kind of just cruising group start now the intentional Know what your goals are and work intentionally towards them now. And the fifth and final thing is believe in yourself. Um, you've made it this far, so you can definitely, um, achieve your dreams. Um, so thank you very much. That is all from my side needing top doctor hang off useful tips that even I myself would actually start taking two a cone. Um, if a medical student, you can get quite busy and even if the doctor when you're working, Um, so I guess the question that I have, but it is a question I have for you. You said that, you know, don't be afraid to go and ask people for help when you need it. What do you think is the one day? That's what I think. The one reason why people wouldn't want to go and also help when they know that they need it. Um, a lot of times, um, students have noticed are afraid to ask for help because they feel like I'm supposed to know this, or they don't want to to look, um, like they don't know. They work. Um, and I think sometimes, as a seniors, or when you run when you're the one running good leading the word around, Um, we can be We might come off. It's intimidating. I think anybody in the leadership opposition can be intimate eaten. So I think students sometimes feel insecure and scared to ask for help because they feel like, uh, maybe I'm supposed to know this, or I'm gonna be embarrassed if I ask a question. And, um so I think that's mainly why people shy away from asking for help. Um, yeah. What do you think? Have you ever been in that position where you escaped to ask for help as a junior? Um, so I'm currently at the medical student in Cardiff? Um, no, I don't like when I need help. I know. I need help getting like that. No point, you know, know asking how when I do need it. But I always I just did myself of the bigger hole. That's a good attitude. Yeah. Yeah. Good. Adequate. Yeah. What? Um, no, I definitely like a lot of tips that you gave, you know, um, trying to find time for yourself. That's actually something that I am currently doing well. And is it a lot effort, but is this unnecessary? Yeah, yeah. Um, but that's great. Yeah. At the moment didn't seem that we have And the other questions coming in. A lot of people saying thank you for your talk. Amazing tips coming in. Um that you So what if we must see Bill it to doctor which era? It was nice to see of the perspective of a doctor living in the UK. Um, maybe more specifically, she's not originally from the UK from not fasting. I'm speaking under correction, I think she said she's from Malaysia. So that was nice. A lot of it was relatable. And I think, uh, it's it's it's great to see that we're not alone. We face the military. INGE's in this field and it's encouraging. Yeah, to see how she cooks with talent, it's actually think it was well, yeah, I think wherever you are, it's It's the same things that you could explain. That will be similarities. But there will also be different tests. That's true. Yeah, thank you very much for speaking for event to date of the angler. We've just got one most speaker who is from Zambia. It's talk the crystal bell? Sure correctly. Here. Me, Dr. Christopher, I can't hear you would. Afternoon. Afternoon. She, um Doctor Handler, if you want to stop sharing your screen and okay. Stop Share. Okay. Yeah. Okay. And then, like the crystal ball, you should be able to share in always. Parini a has meet you. Um, Kohl's. Well, let me just trying that. Mm. And everyone. Uh, sorry. Did you want to just make it full screening as well? That screen now? Yes, it is. Yes. Okay, great. Okay. Thank you for having just Christopher Keary on. I am Dr Exam. Be, Um I am kind of doing my last rotation as an intern. We do for occasions here for you to qualify for delays, its doctor. So I'm doing my last four months, and I should be able to be four. Doctor by December. So, like a doctor exam there are stopping the transition. Um, medical screen, like they're usually takes 6 to 7 years depending on this. Quick. Go to I descended. Get ended. The university examine in school, there is a story. Two years of music scientists. Then you transferred to the medical school, actually start leaning vaginally. Another things from 30 years to do seven here. But again, you have pretty nickel on cleaning bushels 30 and 48 16 Abel. Then feel to seventh year is your clinical years. So after school, you have another a waiting time of about 6, 12 months before they actually absorbed into the system. And you start your internship, I selected side. So we have three teaching hospitals and Zambia, which is, uh, the city hospital year's soccer as well as the living when I was a teaching hospital. I am currently practicing, So these are like the three biggest reverse. It has a catheter in for about 18 million people, which is the number we had from the last census. So the size for internships are quite a number that can't mentioned. So you you go to like the big cities which is like keytruda on Dulera or you come to the sack out where they send you to, like, really you know, parts. Um which is good. I like this temperaments day don't really have the teacher, your hospital, but like General Hospital on Level One hospitals, which then means that some cases that are going to get there, you're going to have to send them to the hospitals. So depending on where you go or what you want to achieve, you rather go to, um, post if you want to affect your city schools and you'd rather be at in tissue area or urban post if you want to do something medical. So internship less about dating to do 34 lbs, depending on mayor had How could start. That's for you if you learn to insert a shin, so we have four. We have IV a cheese. We have intimately seem obstruction, starting getting a college, and we have surgery. So city has been fellas that divided into PT surgery, then the It's beautiful. Can't anesthesia, so expected to spend six months in surgery with two months or one impedance it very boy, Incredible care. Pediatrics is three months into the military three months off. That can use also six months. So you're in. You're intentionally expected to feel out and above tests in your local, which is good and by your seniors. And if you like, you haven't let much or you haven't met the expectation. Instead of spending the prescribed three months, six months in irritation. Don't keep you for a long a beard. Which then, um, also do you bring your intention for more than 18 months as prescribed expectation lost me as a generic is a danger and the hospital. So in the patient comes the person off best contact. They're supposed to take it for his two years post. Examine them thoroughly as most people, their baseline investigations. So these requires that should work very good communication skills. Which brings us the subject of your being multi people, I guess, like four major languages, that someone should not miss the basic. So your Guillain, you know, being on your job, stronger lenses us nothing, because most patients who promised getting those languages so your language has to be on point. I least if you can speak or the language you should be able to understand so much, I want to come and get with the patient. So, um, other than the initial management, you need to know. You need to know how you need to know where at the hospital. So what I've learned through out my last about 18 months to pretty intensive retention is you can't run in the hospital. One you need the nurse. You need the water. You need the guys at the lab. You need the pharmacist. You give the best here or the best of attention to your patient. You need to have known. It's like a person from somewhere. You know the way to get things done. For example, a patient comes in the car. I can't move. You need to report. You can bring your future bed for you to realize that patient from the country on examination between sample, you need the nurse to help you. Kind of like the patient you need the guys at the love to raiment tests as quickly as possible. And you also need the pharmacist probably to prescribe what little what kind of drugs are really. But it's still a point for you to get this picture. So it's all about teamwork. If you are what within it, you find your life as a doctor Very frustrating on Do you live a lot of weight a lot, and that can be really stressful. Then. Other things about being it of times. I mean, I think Dr have we talked about most of them. It's almost similar to what we have here. Um, yeah, things like, um, you be, um, in an in an environment where you're working with very little resources. So there times when you see the patient and you really feel you put do such and such a test for them, boiling would benefit from a particular management. But you find that you don't have it available at the hospital. That can tend to be reading frustrating because then, if you like, and not doing your best at your job. But this just because of the things that you'd like to do for the patient and they're at the moment. And so what did you have to be really resourceful. You have to learn to improvise, for example, there times that you won't have simple things like a good size catheter, maybe in pediatrics, for example, like a drill that we had six catheters. So when you need to catch it, very bitter have to provide and reviews, like if you're going to just let the patient has, um, an important up chat. So you need to be resourceful. You need to know how to talk to your seniors or your superiors because if they find something hasn't been, that it's not their fault that it was. And then even though the thing is not big, my is going to be focal. It's your responsibility. So you have to always know how 100 s situation all want to drop too if you can't access something that you really need a particular point. So in terms of social life and carry a progression, internship is about the best time for you to truth. What you'd like to specialize in girls give you and over you every specialty. So the amount of time that just being in each rotation gives you a tear Idea off watchers wants to do or what you expect. I expect it off in kiss became especially since that back in if, like, stumble also, if you find yourself enjoying that particular thing, you then kind of change a problem in us to a student you think you really, really enjoyed of the game. But when you do come for internships, you find that you don't enjoy it as much as you enjoy it. You don't make a scene, for example. So then you kind it kind of opens you up to, UM, billion or knowing that you actually belonged to internal medicine on time. So that's one of the brakes or the training, then. Other than that, it's about the best paid internship in the single surface. But the amount of time that you spend at the hospital so much that you really have time to actually spending the money, like giving or the money that you get paid. So it's really important that you have the weight, life balance. I think I have talked about mental health very important. I think she is greater. It's something that we said, like, don't really talk about, But it's, um, a key aspect. It's like you treating a patient when yourself don't have a so mental and physical being, so you find yourself being stressed or carrying a little work with you at home. It was this, like a huge lot of patients that I responsibility, but at the end of the day, you need to deploy it, like if I'm not work, I put it my best. And when I'm at home, it's my time like it's my time to relax. It's my time to study. Um, maybe seen never reading there by intimate it's it's so you know, as much as become a doctor, you still have to pull up living as matters, you know, extreme. Probably even more with this Damn yeah, forecast studying. For example. You have a patient who comes with a disease and you don't have a diagnosis. You have been then forced to go and stand up on that. That's a pill a day. In order for you to come and give them the best management the following day off be able to present them in the cleaning for meeting. For you to be able to present the millimeter are your counts because you're responsible for that. What they expect that you know everything about setting patients when they come. For the majority of that civility. So you don't need to, uh, divide the time or plan your day has been going because, you know when Mondays I'm supposed to be on call, for example, I need to study before hand, just in case. I mean this and this when she's maybe a a a towel, something you need to be really to place it in procedures. So you know what I'm studying. So end of the day. It helps to really plan your day and to plan your week. The same goals actually called in that, so that every day you come back with value, you know, but a seen a patient. It's valuable feeling. Watching learners more is going to be valuable. That way you have to work like that. If I said five worse when we can catch it, the more I don't see why I wouldn't have time for myself, whether you can. I should say I've been a doctor can be really hard sometimes ports are you spend so much time in the hospital, for example. I know I spend almost three days in the hospital pressure quite like 34 days. So I go in at eight. And, um, I told the following the only mildly on the Thursday and Saturday Sunday and you know how that goes. So you see that if you have a land or you're having said boards, you spend so much time I lost about when you come back. Do they have a conflict, anything for yourself? Yes, you have accomplished something by seeing the patient. My Children had changed. You wouldn't have a chip your face on the boards because you didn't have pain level and that, um, I think it's the best time to do this to your fracture. I'm sure when we or injury in med school, we want to help people. We have a situation you know about that. Give us an idea like, Oh, hey, I think so many minutes in a sitting. So it's chorea where you have many doctor moons. If I should cooperate that like, it's amazing to see a patient come in with a stretcher and you see them going home working, you can be really fulfilling on again. It can be really stressful, especially the fact that sometimes I doctor talked about let me each patient's name by calling them by the end like a big good for you, but for you cause the time when you learn the patient's name, I followed him up before they get better, and then the outcome is not so good. It really hits you really better. So again, you have to, um, know you're living in terms of the relationships with the patients. Be there for them, do the best that you can for them, but you have your mommy is your emotions Could you be really have given in dating basis? Uh, and you don't know yourself if you like, You know, much as we have the weight of the war. Not sure that's don't carry the weight on your own. It's not serious with anyone. You tourists, you said the face. If you feel like a tad, take time off. If you feel like overall, always ask for help. The care that you're going to give you a patient is only as valuable as much of the cancer treatment to yourself. So at the point when you feel like you're breaking or at the point that you feel can give much, you can always look to your superior level that someone I think I need to break. And I think it'll even do so that, you know as you're coming to them, to your patients, your best form holes. It's a career that requires you to be always in your best form. Yeah, that's the end of dictation. Thank you. Thank you dot Reversible for their talk. I think across all three talks from us because we can all agree that taking time for yourself is so important because we we need to be in our best form to give the best quality of care to our patients. Think we don't have any questions? But I do have a question for all three speakers, which is, I think doctor hangers left, actually. But Doctor Richard is still here. If you were Teo, have an option off choosing to work in any other country besides from where you're from. What? Besides, where you working now? Where what You are? Yeah, yeah, I for the fact that it's mean after my internship, I feel like I want to go into medical practice. I want to be in remission or drink, um, a medicine for the fact that South Africa Tenerelli done in particular with the measles emitted I think I would love to work in the UK, for example. I think you have everything when you think to see if I wanted Sarah out, get it in a heartbeat because I wanted. And, you know, I say I would get it in a heartbeat. You everything you have to, like, push, push, pull. Sometimes you would ask where said, and this probably is a really about a private, not about your patient cannot afford it. So you end up managing. They presented the you assume they tested negative or yesterday positive on drink them and ask opinion on that. So if I had an option, probably left work in the UK. So in the summertime, with all there is a system, anything that treated I don't have Don't bruise yourself, Amber. We've had a question from insulin for you, doctor. Visible Biggest drawback off life in your country as a doctor, I guess. Which sort of you answered a bit in the first question. So if you want expand on that yeah, that's I think that's about the biggest drawback, really their resources on. And we have this mentality where most patients for you, like when they come to the hospital, everything is supposed to be given to them. Really? So, for example, you could ask them to you. And actually I think the next really like the cheapest test. We can go out our facility. It's about one know, like not to doulas, but the patient give you another like, Oh, this is a government acidity and supposed to get everything done for you for free so they makes you limited because you have to then make send into such a little there on. Then it just makes the whole one ethnic really long. What was supposed to stick you later on our checks you probably half the day was for you to get a crew from social affair, for they finally get it. Just that you don't spend the would be going with the actual spinning dust. And I we came with the one or in the proximity had the resources for you to do Saturday. So I think that's the biggest setback. Other than that, I mean bridge in my years. Okay. Yeah. Thank you so much. Doctor. Missed a bell. Um, so that concludes our final weapon offer today on the conference. Next off, we will have a 10 minute break on day After that, we have our very own Amanda. Who's our co chair. She's going to give a talk about more of an inside about the Phoenix project on down. How? Because Phoenix Medicaid was born from there, so she's going to give us an inside about that on. We also have a talk. A prerecorded talk from Matt, who's also are other co chair. Who's going to, um, give us? Ah, he's given us a Precor. Did video off Phoenix people, which we mentioned yesterday, um, on. Then they will do a Q and A at the end, so stick around for that. Will have a jewel. 10 minute break. Thank you. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, thing, but good. Yeah, right. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Uh huh. Hello, everyone. So we have our final workshop off the day off the conferences. Well, so next up we have the lovely Amanda was a code chair. The patient is a coach off your next med ed, Um, given us a talk about the Phoenix project and giving us more of an inside. Amanda is also a third year medical student in Cardiff. Same of them. Everyone who, Um So if Amanda, I hand it over to you to introduce herself a little bit on, we can get working from amazing. Thank you so much. Pre. No. Um So, guys, protein is gonna be helping me out with the slides on. We hope this is also interactive. So feel free to to drop your questions on the chart to talk to us. Um, and also get, you know, tell us what? What made you really excited about this home. That's why did you decide to come here? And if it was worth it for you to come? You know what? What did you learn? So type of med shot, which is gonna be to the side here. So typing on the shot, What made you excited about the form friends while have you learned if you made any connections through out as well. And why am I talking about Phoenix? You know, why do we have ah workshop on Lee for finished at the end? Well, pretty much because Phoenix is running this home friends and you finish. This is not just ah group of people. It's a group of people that help each other and support each other. And we also want to give a little bit off inside to into how it came about how it's quite new. So how did they actually develop over over the period off this year? Because it was launched lot in the last year. And how can you get involved? You know, like we'll have you Look, have we learned in the process? How can you get involved. And it what are the benefits? Pretty much. And we have some very exciting use later on. So I'm one of the chairs over. Thing expected. We have a Notre chair. Matthew, Matthew, We Doctor Matthew, uh, he he is going to be. She has a record of presentation because he's on whole today, but he hopefully will you also joining us afterwards for the 2.5 a presentation, which is, and I'll review some exciting products that we have in feelings and they can get involved in. Surely you will benefit a lot from it. So starting a little bit about what Phoenix is before we talk about the next management need to talk about something very important, which is the Phoenix project. The Phoenix project is a nine year educational and research collaboration between two countries of originally. So it was pretty much the UK and the media. But then Zambia joined a little bit later. So that's a very exciting collaboration between the three, um, universities card if you never city University of Namibia and University of Zambia. But I think it also expended too many, many other countries, and there were talks with Iraq, for example, and older countries in Africa that could collaborate and finished project. And really, everything is about this collaboration across borders. What the Phoenix project has as aims, issue a line with the United Nations in stable development goals on S. So it's talking about reduction of properties, talking about promotion, off wealth, promotion, off education as well. The finished project does a lot of educational projects and really incorporate and really wants you improve the health care in the three countries, you know. So Cardiff is as you as you know, each country has his own benefits. And drawbacks is, as you've seen from this whole conference, that we knew that we put together for you. So each each each country can cooperate in a different way, and Carter's can give a little bit of its resource is true Zombie on a maybe and then maybe teach card attached. Do things better, you know. So it's about all of this collaboration from collaboration. Great things emerge and pretty much the main. The main aim is to improve the quality of life off the people in these three countries through the shared burning through medical education. Also so next line. Yeah. So, um yeah. Next lied. Amazing. So some of the projects that the some of the in the initiatives after next project has been running was last year, for example, they they started this fiction rising competition for Children. So everyone, every adults, you know, they had to be 18 or older. They wrote stories for for Children, um, fiction stories. And then they submitted or projects. And then there was this whole like event big events, virtually which was very, very nice because it was also started the panic and everyone was under screens and they were trying to incorporate the shared learning through the world virtual world because before had beforehand, it was everything in person. We had this fiction rising for petition on the speaker. The we had of, like, selection and the main ones from the selection came into the into the actual event and and spoke like read their their stories out loud. And then it was super super Nizoral you to have this sort of collaboration on or in the screen. And then we had a winter overall, and this is pretty much to help the Children in the Midea. It was pretty much directed towards Namibia. We also had a partnership from power Namibian Room and so giving a little bit of fellowships. I think it was four women in the in the maybe A to pursue this research of women into healthcare. And then recently, most recently So it was in in August September this year, where whales is donating 7.2 million lbs off PPH Namibia to help with the pandemic on it's It's amazing. You know how collaboration chondroit I've so much success in three countries on if you go to the next light pre. No. There was also the Phoenix mad that came into the middle of this so that finished. Roger has been going for nine years. Long time finish. Med was quite in you quite new last year in the pen. I mean, I think it's it's nice if I give a little bit off. Uh, my my experience with it, it's It's amazing for us to talk about the next med it here because it shows how us like a really, really nice project. And the pretty nice collaboration between people can emerge from nothing, because what happened was that last year before the pandemic started packing January February, where everything was normalish. We we all had this in so many medical students in Cardiff, in the mid be a and they had interest in doing exchange programs. And for many students in Cardiff University, that was the opportunity of going away in a movie for eight weeks during the summer. And many students applied, however, because of the pandemic, nothing nothing happened on We were quite side were quite disappointed. But Professor Whole, which is the leadoff the Phoenix project, Um and then she also I should mention Doctor of her, she Hama from Namibia. They were super supportive throughout and then they actually wanted to make something out of it. So they they made a what's up group for the people that were interested that applied to George Number being couldn't go, and we joined with some previous students from the media that had come to cart if beforehand from the with your asthmas program. So that was quite exciting. That was quite quite nice. We started on the this what's up group when we had our first four and no one actually like really knew what was happening. But from this coal, lots of things emerged because when it minds come together, it's something brilliant can come out of it. So we were We were decided that we wanted to that we wanted to join first the forces on, because when you were passionate about medical education, we're passionate about global health, about collaboration. So we we we wanted to make something we wanted to make. Ah, sort of a group off students that no only supports of them each other through learning, but throughout their own, like throw their whole careers. There's no an instant thing where you have the benefit and at that exact moment, But we wanted to be there for each other through our whole medical career and helping each other in many aspects. No, only I condemn it, but also non academic. So that's why we created the Phoenix Metadate Fellowship, and we from so you can see on the stream that that was our first call on the truth shop. So that was quite sizing. No one actually knew where we were gonna We're gonna go after this. But we had some very passionate individuals in there that were very keen to collaborate with others, no matter how far they were on how how different their minds behaved and how well, how different perspectives we had. Because we were all there for shared purpose, which was to help medical education. And you also share our passion for international cooperation. So amazing. Um what? What? What? What happened after that? So Matthew and I were two people that were very, very keen to do something with with Phoenix manage more than just a group of people that were there for each other. We were actually wanted to take this learning beyond the people that were involved in the group. So we wanted to take this further, you know? So I think that crossing Board of Borders is the most of Phoenix manage. And we also cross boundaries not only physically off international borders, but we also across the boundaries off medical education. On this was when everything was starting to be online. We having So we were having some lectures, academic lectures online because everyone everything was moved to the virtual. So universities, we're starting to give their lectures a line, and we were like, Okay, maybe we can actually make some events. Some collaboration and some friendships online as well. So we started creating some of it, and so you can see a few of the ones that we create. So we had our first revenge about contrast, Stained, comparing, contrasting the UK health care system within a maybe in that zumba on one. So it was a very, very nice event where we could see the difference is that there were and what we could get out of it. You know what like you are healthier systems are so different, yet the same in the in the same way. Amazing how a also opened the worst while I really want to go to maybe A to export more off what their health care system has to get, you know? So I already you really wanted to go to the movies, especially because I I'm an international students. So I I'm from Brazil. But I used to live in motion because well, and I know a lot Ah, lot of countries in Africa And I wanted to about, you know, maybe a and do some medical work there because back when I lived in most of me, I wasn't a medical student, so by that events that only increased my, my my sort of desire to go to Namibia and also to go to Zumba. We also had a give a fellowship Go. You know, we had some We will we aim to do with the next minute. It was no providing events that we could blink and bomb to each other. But we could also aids the medical education side of things. So we had, ah, social events. We had events that were a little bit more a lecture, like or formal, such as the copay 19 and stuff, you know, types by professors acne. So he's Ah, he's from Cardiff University and he gave amazing talk on the Kobe 19 and the research behind it back when everything was start seeing, so that was very enriching as well. We had the Phoenix project making doing a conference last year, and we participated and we conducted a workshop off the human Healer, which was about mental health's, and that was a really success. So it was really, really nice and we also started this sort of Siris of international case based learning in Cardiff we have are are a sort of learning in the curriculum. It's very self directed and group focused on. We have something called called Case based Where we going to groups and we we have a case and we discussed about the case. We come out with any outcomes and by the end of it we should learn from each other share ideas. And that's what we try to implement with students from Zambia and the maybe a swell, trying to bring some cases and interactive virtual virtual side of things on that was approved to be very successful. We had other international case based learning off abdominal pain, actually recently, and we we also hope to continue those ones. So as you can see, we had many, many, many events on. We also had some initiatives coming out of that, including the get vaccinated motion. But you must have got vaccinating campaign on social media where several way wanted to improve the Namibian populations awareness and understanding off the benefits of the vaccine. And because there is a lot of a lot of full of faking use, a lot of false information going out there, and we wanted actual doctors to do to say I have been vaccinated. What about your You know, nobody has really improved that because back, back. Ah, few months ago, the situation wasn't great with the mood in the maybe because of Cove, it so improving, I think the Phoenix Project and finish med This collaboration really made a nymph act in the people of Namibia. So that's another thing that we that we did. And then from there we have the venous Phoenix medical team, which plays a huge part off about like, why you are here today and why this all happened. So we have a lot of faces here, often expended on later on, I'm going to actually be saying all their names because they were They are amazing people and they're super passionate about medical education and were super, super, super happy to have them in our fellowship, as are collaborating with us every single day. You know, having that that contact because we do feel like you're part of a little family. So I I feel like I can contact and he any of them not only for things that have to do with the next med. Well, I I've made, like, lifelong friendships in here a swell. So I think I hope every know we can only get only invite you to be part of this off. This with us. And I'm super super crowd off where we've come on. You know how you are here today. So just as you can see, we have on the top there, Professor Whole, who made this whole happy know she's the leader of the things project and she always giving us a lot of sports with the Phoenix Medicaid on really giving us the freedom off during whatever. Relax with fittings. So pretty much is amazing, too. Super supportive. She's always there for us. We have Matt there. So he's our culture. You're going to hear from him in a little bit. You have Slocum who is our one of our designs. We designed needs along with Marais. So she's on the oh, they're Yes, it does my ratios all or designing eat a swell.

And I think we have Matt No, to give us a little, a little inside this sort of project that we have going on that we wanted to launch in this conference for you called the Phoenix People. What is it about? Thank you, Amanda, for that talk. Very insightful. Um, we'll have, you know, at the end after month video, because I think he will be able to come on the call, even those really busy or being on call. So we will do that after, but yesterday, I just I just wanted to, um, put the nose here. This is the cure the correct your code for the Phoenix People registration form, which I put, um, on this like yesterday. But that wasn't the right one. So I just put in the cure coat of the right one this time on. Also, I'm just I just like to say on the recording off much Phoenix people video and the wrong cure code is on it throughout. So don't scan that one's got this one on, but I've put it on another slight after the video was Well, so, um, hopefully you haven't scanned the wrong one, and this is the right one. So that federal father would do. I'm just gonna tell you much video on Welcome today. Two of the Phoenix Medicine Conference. It's great to have you're here on. I really hope you've been enjoying are amazing lineup of speakers. My name's Mathew is a man has already said on I am one of the coaches of a Phoenix methods committee. Uh, today I am very, very excited to be able to run out and brand new scheme exclusive to the next medicine on. We'll leave that it's a U. K. First for global health education and quite possibly a world first as well. I'm sorry. I can't be joining the life it so far provided my rotor works out. Okay, I should be able to join for the Q and a session following this. Um, so I've got a little power five presentation, and I'm just going to strain my screen now. Okay, on first off, I'm just going to say a little bit about myself. Give a little bit of an introduction. So I started My name's Matthew, um foundation. You one doctor working in North Wells in Grand Clueless Hospital. I'm currently in the acute medical unit. Uh, my particular interests are sustainability in healthcare. I want to help professional Well, being global health ends particularly global health, education, on expedition medicine. And, most importantly, bids work life balance. Okay, I think what I'd really like to talk to you about today is Phoenix people. The next people is a new scheme to Phoenix. Make that and it stands for Phoenix method expanding options and providing learning experience, esteem, better force. Um, shortened it to the next people because everyone, every member off the Phoenix, my legs community is important to us on the basic principles behind Phoenix, people go right back to the start of when the next minute it was first found. It, um, we want him to push the boundaries of global health education on by that when Penick's medicine was founded, it was just a community off medical students and junior doctors that will have a call on interest. And I wanted to learn about each other's lives on the health care challenges that we faced on three bats. We thought that period of the teaching was really important and it really, really benefitted us. But most importantly, this whole Phoenix community is about friendship, and that's what we want to get the heart of the next people. We want to be buying new days with an opportunity to make friends across borders with people that he wasn't normally have the opportunity to interact with so that he can really understand. It's their lives, the different cultures on. But just generally through that, we hope that we can promote global health education by giving you the opportunity to explore the things you're interested in. So the bones of Phoenix people are in particular, as I've said to connect people of similar levels of training so they can share the neutral experiences, discuss things that they've seen on placements or things that they've been learning about in the left ear's. Well. The heart's challenges that they've experienced that were on discuss what sorts of careers there perhaps wanted to put you on. But how they develop in different countries. And we really want people to be able to explore the cultures and the health care challenges that each other face. And we're hoping that through this process, everyone can have a way to understanding off a global health and be more involved in the discussions that take place. Not just being lectured to you can actually take power. Ask the questions you're interested in and get answers from the people that are living. The opposite experience is on and other aspects of this. We're hoping that it's going to provide some networking opportunities for if you want to travel and work abroad in the future, for if you want to just get a whole day and experience a different culture on him or if you perhaps you want to do some international research, we have that we can provide you with a basic platform to be able. Teo liaise with partner Uh, how are the countries? I'm just generally promote your own careers as well as lots of others. And again, at the heart of the Phoenix people scheme friendships. That's what we want to prevent the most, because we feel that Phoenix made it that the best way to learn about global health challenges is by talking to and making friends in those other countries, and it becomes a much more natural process. And the educational power is so much stronger. So what is the former of the next people? Well, we're gonna put everyone that that applies to the scheme into smooth. What's up chat groups. There's gonna be participants from each country with 1 to 2 committee members in each. What's up group? In order to be able to facilitate the discussions, make sure everyone has active in professional, and just to address any concerns that any of the members may have at any time there is there gonna be providing points of discussion throughout the throughout their process of Phoenix people. So once a month, we're going to be, um, coming up with either a case or a concept that might be particularly poignant to a set and a country, a certain cohort of people or something that someone has just said. I'm really interested in this. I want to man about what it's like forever. People, Uh, what we're going to try and do is we're gonna much participants to that stage of training so that you can share the similar journey. So the if you just had your first a clinical placement and you've seen something distressing, you'll be able to talk to other people in different countries and find out how they deal with the stress. Is peri on mute? Oh, sorry. I think that I've been issued the video. Let me just stop sharing. I'm a screen and then we can I will try to resolve whatever is happening. Think it should be working Now let me just try showing this screen again. Oh, okay, Year about this time we believe that you guys are the most interested in being, that's and we want to give you first dibs at getting involved in the scheme. Uh, groups are gonna be encouraged to meet over here so that you can actually get to chat. Some people, maybe have a better laugh. Um, and you could come up with some social events as well. That again, a Z, the committee. Then this will be able to help facilitate on. We don't want this to take over your life. The idea of having a what's that group is so that you can just drop in estrogen and out every now and then, but also so that he can arrange these larger Zune social gatherings on that were really expecting is I'm just making a participation. Three messaging, Um, a couple of times a month, plus trying to meet up on a team, social every 1 to 2 months and has a sense we're gonna get you down on some discussion. But it's awesome cases through the committee. So they're everyone gets involved in the conversation, and we're just going to encourage people to feel really involved in this community. And I get most importantly questions or encouraged from all participants. We want this to be your skin, and we won't mutilate this what you want. So how's he got involved? The cure. Okay, that's been popping up in the bottom corner of this presentation. If you stand up completely form. You'll be on a waiting list on you. Hasn't went. Places come out, we'll be able to allocate you Teo groups. Yeah, As I said, this is an exclusive opportunity port, and they used to get in there first so that you can definitely guarantee your brace on the Phoenix people steam. It's completely free. There's no costs. There's gonna be no advertising material. But those prove anything ever been seen? X Men that events on It's gonna be friends supported by the Phoenix Medicines Committee. So really, the last thing that I need to say is just get involved, get stuck into the conversation, get making friends on, and let's work together to promote global health education for everyone, only the two arteries at the bottom of the screen, just for a little bit longer on. Then we'll add a little Q and A now, and we'll just have a chance about the Phoenix crochet. The next people on do. If anyone has any ideas that they want to share anything they want to build on already within this project, feel free to come forward, approach myself or Amanda on. We're more than happy to take your days off walls and forwards for the future development of Phoenix. Like that. Thanks very much on let's move on to the Q and A So we go realize also, um, you know, again the perfect. If I, um, go to the next light is where the right you're good is that we go. So, um, feel free to scan that on the joint part. Phoenix people scheme, right? I can't see if there's any questions because I'm screen sharing. So charms if there's any Uh huh. I don't really, uh, my hair is They're on call with the stethoscope. I mean, I actually see ah see a question on the shot. Um, but I do. Before we answered, I just think that it is nice if we just really recap on on the Finnish people. And just re emphasizing is important because the whole purpose of it is so that you guys can make friends with people from other countries, you know, and we really, really encourage you to sign up to it. It's really absolutely free. Ah, and you you probably get you can make connections that will serve you for the rest of your medical career, and you can get get help from each other for definitely non Economically. You will have the support from us from the Phoenix Met a group a swell on all of the support that you needed. Don't worry, it's not gonna be awkward. You're going to feel a little bit insecure, and it's a great way to actually develop your communication skills. You know your teamwork skills on to engage with people from other countries. If you are interested in international cooperation in medical education and global health, I think that's a great, great opportunity to get involved. Don't you think about you? Absolutely. I think fundamentally like it says in the video. This is that the heart of what Phoenix med it is all about. It's all about making friends and and away using those friendships so that you can develop, um, sort of your own confidence in global health, global health topics and just explore areas that you're interested in. Um, not necessarily stick too old the prescribe syllabus that is almost enforced at medical school. This gives you the flexibility to be able Teo, learn about global health, how you want to learn about it, and I could say I think it's something that's unique. Um, probably one of the is definitely the first project of its type, um, in the UK And I think it's probably one of the first projects of its type for medical students that is on junior doctors in the low in around the world to get involved. Um, we really want it back from you guys is to what we can improve on and how to make this work for you. Um, as it's a pilot scheme is that metformin is already said We're going to initially just be accepting applications from those, uh, that have connections with either cars of University University and maybe a university of some beer. But if we don't have sufficient taker or if we finds that we're able Teo accommodate more people than by all means will be accepting applications from elsewhere, result absolutely completely agree. Ah, so get involved ises like a new a very, very you project. You know, you can be the pioneers, the first people that are actually engaging in on this, and you can really take the advantage and really build on the skills that you can transfer to a medical career I don't see that there was a question, right? Yes. What's next for Phoenix? What is next? Your face? That is a great question. Sorry, Gina. Phoenix people is What's next for Phoenix? No. Absolutely. So in in Phoenix, Medicaid, we provide regular events every every every month. We provide Ah, formal soldier events on. You can keep up to that on our over social media platforms. So we we create lots of events if you also want to get involved in in the actual fellowship, been getting a little bit more out of the actually taking some initiative and even engaged with with the medicine that we have now, you know, I'm I think the team would be more than happy if you want you to collaborate on some sort of events. Um, if you want to learn more about what finish med it is about, and we're gonna have many other big projects in the in the future. Phoenix people, including including one of them, I think the other thing that we've been exploring but haven't yet got running as well is trying to get involved in some sort of research and use this international platform to effectively facilitate any research questions that you might have, for instance, whether it's to do with medical education. And the difference is across continents, or perhaps even how clinical practice difference across continents. And we've got a couple of ideas, but we want this platform to be used effectively by anyone that wants to be able to use it. So if you got an idea for something that you want to explore more and you want to expect and out to the international seen get in such with us on, we'll be able Teo um, same post doing the right direction on. But we'd like to be able to facilitate a any research going forwards absolutely agree. And if you you've you've also seen from the talks that we had over the weekend how important international collaboration is, how important research is, how unfortunate getting engaged in project is for your medical career now only for the networking opportunities, but also for your own own CVS as a medical student. So we had a to talk about the specialty training and how it is important you have a portfolio medical portfolio that showcases all the skills that you had lots of transferable skills that you're going to a fine into being a doctor. You know how research from vacation leadership is on importance in in the life of a doctor. So Phoenix, the great pathway for you to take on we can help you eat where they're just what? You have any ideas getting touch with us? And we also want to hear from you about what you want to finish to help you with. So we're more than happy to hear from you as well. And we have our newsletter where you can get we, ah, regular insight into the life or in the in the three countries and are the future events that were coming up with a swell. So make sure you sign up to that. I had a question, too. Both Amando and Mama on other sort of plans for you know, this is a card of to go to a movie a zombie on Zambians come to Cardiff or two. Maybe a um yeah, those are questions on the pounds in the future. Since we started right now, we always wanted Teo to meet up with the people that we met on What's up? We met online, and it's always been there. This sort of, like, wish the pandemic didn't know, allow it in the beginning especially. And now things are improving. Um, it's always about cost time and money with the finished project, which is our our our mother. Pretty much, uh, it's also provides several. Perchance, she's for the people in the three country, especially people that are involved in in Phoenix to meet up, you know, to do so. Service change, broke or programs and really in engagements, injection opportunities, Right, Mom? Yeah. Prior to covitz, there was there actually were students from both Namibia and some be a medical student came over and got involved in our teacher as well, and that wasn't reciprocated the other way. But it was in terms of, um I think junior doctor's going out and get experience. And there was a generic cohort of students that included a students, not medical. Um, that was go out in the maybe a virus. Well, um, on your code perspiring works with all of that, but it's definitely something that we would want to, uh, get back and explore a soon as possible. But that's sort of where the whole fans. Air is, you know, from Phoenix. Methods came from when the well there were initially these students coming over, um that perhaps didn't know many people going into the different hospitals and what not on go from that. Once the pandemic, it and people weren't able to communicate. That's a lot. That's where the next measures was effectively born. We were able to provide people with a platform to communicate and learn about each other's healthcare system's without having to go through the expenditure and use up all the time that I travel actually involves. I feel like the Internet such a convenient place, sometimes to connect with other people. When way don't the pandemic mean example? There's restrictions for us to go abroad. But if anyone house hasn't, I don't charms the animal questions on metal know so that that secure code for Phoenix people that's been on the, um, scream, Um, yeah, and then our socials again because we want to emphasize this community feel, you know, interact with us through social media, make it feel like a community. We, our community, and so follow us, connect to this, interact with us. Yeah, but, um, it is the whole has set in the Commons that, uh, she said I have a resting was funding for 22 is normalizing now that this country's have about it. So she said, washes space and they'll be students and stuff both ways very soon. There will always be plans in the future that either we haven't disclosed all that we don't even know about yet. So this space okay, Perfect. So I think that Amanda, you gonna say a few words, I think, but scientists and mark the end of our to the conference. Thank you guys so much. We're sticking around. Um, trying that we have one question, uh, someone's us. How soon can we expect to be added to the What's that group? And if one is not at it, who do we send the email? Conveniently? I have a day off tomorrow. Think this is actually the first thing I'm going to be doing, but, um, so the groups will be allocated for those that have signs up today. The groups will be allocated tomorrow. We will try and wait until each group is sort of filled with all of the spaces because I don't want to be adding up. You don't want conversations to be starting, and then other people going in and catching up think it'd be better. I have everyone all in together, so that might be a bit of a weight. Um, until that group gets up and running. But rest assured, I'll be keeping a close eye on things and making sure things are really perfect. Anything else in the arm now? No. Okay. I really hope you guys have enjoyed our two day conference on the the ray off webinars that have been given to you by our lovely speakers on. But I will hand it over to a Monday. Oh, okay. Thank you.
