17 Learning objectives Demonstrate empathetic and professional approach Improve communication skills Reflect on what you have seen and learnt All in the SSC handbook 17
18 Process Allocated tutor Work within groups of 6-7 students One to one relationship with a patient Tutor will run tutorials - about one per month You will get to know the patient and their family Attend outpatients, treatment, surgery etc Try and do a home visit 18
19 Oncology Visit Attendance Slip The nature of the project has not allowed us to identified designated slots within the curriculum But, for important oncology project events you ARE encouraged to request release from your timetabled curriculum events Ideally you should Ask permission from the tutor of the timetabled event that you are asking leave from If necessary ask your oncology project tutor to sign a Visit Attendance Slip This should avoid conflict that has occurred previously DO NOT just miss a timetabled event for the oncology project
20 Process Start project in late September Complete write up by March counts towards final year mark - 25% of SSC mark 20
21 TUTORIALS Every month to six weeks meet for tutorials Review and reflect on your contact and progress with the patient Widen experience by hearing others stories Some tutors arrange expert sessions with colleagues, e.g. surgeons, to widen the discussions within the group
22 TUTORIALS Direct your learning and wider reading Identify areas of knowledge gaps Identify areas of particular interest Some tutors ask for students to prepare a short presentation to the group on a particular subject of interest Provide help with structuring the portfolio
23 How does it work in practice? Talk to your patient as a person: the patient is your teacher! Go with them to clinics, investigations, treatment Ask about medical history, all aspects Visit them at home at least once Get to know them over time Communicate by phone as well This is a unique opportunity throughout your training and future medical career
24 The patient s journey triggers active learning Treatment options Diagnostic process Symptom control Breaking bad news Emotional impact Bereavement

32 Feedback from tutor to student What did the student do well? What could have been improved? Any additional points?
33 Patient Feedback 1. How did your student make contact with you throughout the project? Clinic Telephone Home visit Letter/ 2. Overall, how would you rate the communication between you and your student? poor excellent Please feel free to add additional comments below:
34 Patient Feedback 3. Do you feel your student behaved in an appropriate manner throughout the project with regards to the following headings: 1) Polite and courteous 2) Appropriately dressed 3) Punctual, reliable and conscientious 4) Demonstrated sensitivity and respect to you and your family/carers Poor excellent We would welcome any feedback you may have about your experience of the project, whether positive or negative
35 Patient Feedback 5. If asked, would you consider taking part in a project like this again. 6. Thinking back do you feel that you had enough information about the project before you agreed to take part not enough plenty
36 Student Feedback Encourage you to complete the on line feedback Annual tutor meeting Tutors individual feedback FAQ s New tutor guidance Pilot this year for you to give tutors more specific feedback 36
37 37
38 FAQ s Intruding at a sensitive time? How much information do patients receive before consenting? Delay in allocation of patient. Is the home visit essential?
39 The Patients view 82% helped student to understand what it is like to be a patient with a serious illness 85% felt students valued the patient s contribution 81% felt oncology project was a worthwhile experience for students 62% patients felt it was worthwhile for them
40 Patient s views We feel the project is an excellent way of giving future doctors an insight into the effect cancer has on patients and their family. I shared my innermost thoughts on my illness with my student, so I think she knew how I felt about my illness. I also think it will help her when talking to patients in the future.
41 Patient s Feedback The project is worthwhile because it does help the student to understand the stress of serious illness and the detrimental effect it can have on the rest of the family Until I had spoken to my student I had not explained my illness to my stepson. I felt I was protecting him, my student helped me to realise I should discuss things more openly with my stepson
42 Student s Feedback 91% learnt about cancer as a disease 85% will enhance my care of patients with other diseases 88% more confident in talking to patient with life threatening illness 75% more confident in dealing with distress and symptoms
43 Student comments enjoyed the experience of meeting a patient with cancer on my own, rather than in a pair as it allowed me to face my fear of cancer my patient was the best bit.this project as a whole played a vital role for my enjoyment this year as it was very rewarding
44 5:Overall 06/07 07/08 08/09 09/10 10/11 My confidence has increased n/a n/a 94.1% 91.4% 96.3% Communication skills have improved n/a n/a 96.7% 94.4% 98.8% Learning objectives achieved n/a n/a n/a 86% 95%
45 Cancer Care is Multidisciplinary MDT team surgeons, physicians, radiologists, oncologists, specialist nurses, clinical trial nurses, palliative care, junior doctors, data collectors Hospital teams therapeutic radiographers, pharmacists, dieticians, chemotherapy nurses etc Community teams palliative care nurses, district nurses, GP, social workers Family and carers 45 23
46 Confidentiality Do REMEMBER patients must know that what they tell in private remains private Do NOT use patient name, initials, DOB in the portfolio Doctor/nurse should NOT be identified in the portfolio write-up the markers know their colleagues and it is not appropriate. Do not photocopy the notes Do not put identifiable material onto memory sticks or CD s Do not discuss patients in public areas such as corridors
47 Safety Use common sense when considering home visits with a patient. Especially for female students. Do not agree to a home visit until you have met the patient, and if in doubt contact your tutor.
48 IT and library services There is an excellent IT service, particularly at Velindre. There is also a dedicated oncology and palliative care library with a fulltime librarian who is a font of information and help Bernadette Coles: bernadette.coles@wales.nhs.uk
49 Plagiarism UNFAIR PRACTICE PROCEDURE Plagiarism: this is using the words or ideas of others without acknowledging them as such and submitting them for assessment as though they were one s own work TURNITIN UK is an online service hosted at that enables institutions and staff to carry out electronic comparison of students' work against electronic sources including other students' work
50 Student support This is a frightening situation for many Personal issues friends and family with cancer Not the usual doctor-patient relationship May be difficult to move on at end of project
51 Student support 80% students felt adequately supported; 7% did not. - fairly stable Use your tutors! do not be afraid to ask for support as an individual, if not within the group Any issues, especially feeling inadequately supported: contact SSC admin in the medical school or Dr Staffurth or Dr Brewster
52 STUDENT SUPPORT CENTRE Heath Park Cathays Park
