  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
  • My daily tasks consist of seeing a patient in the morning and the afternoon. I take their history, apply the monitors for the test, and monitor the recording, and report it afterwards. I also stock up the clinical rooms and carry out any departmental tasks if needed.

  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • My first semester was really organised and I really enjoyed it, however I feel like one of the units this semester was slightly unorganised, and lessons were scheduled last minute sometimes. More exam support is needed for the specialist unit, such as practice MCQs
