Summative Evaluation : from Group 14/ 2555

At the end of two week rotation for the fifth year medical students to our Anesthesiology Department, we always ask them what we can improve to better serve them and any defects we can get rid of. Yesterday, Friday 14th Sept, 2555, we asked this 14th group about what they can get from our department with their two hands and anything they would suggest us.

They were mostly happy with the rotation that we really hope that they should feel that way. We cannot help them much about to become competent because the time would be definitely too short and the experience for each student would not be adequate for them to become an expert, they must keep on practising wherever the chance arrives. We teach them just the very first step, they need to find their own ways to practise more.

We are also happy that they knew more what we actually do each day in the operating theatre, one student mentioned about her understanding about the anaesthesia record, actually it is an essential document because the anaesthesia team would record the important event happened in the theatre, sometimes about the medications given in the OR so that the surgical team would make their appropriate decision about when the next dose would be.

Some students mentioned about their good time learning in the simulation means, we asked them whether or not it was worth trading their important working in the theatre to learning in the simulation lab, they all agreed that it was definitely worth doing so, because they were trading a hand skill learning with real patient to learning with the machine and most students aimed to learn about airway management skills with us. We have a hope that bigger departments would soon start their teaching with the Simulation means, a year has passed, we have not yet seen any move.

They told us that they understand more about preoperative evaluation and preparation, we hope that they can apply this principles to other rotations in their patient care.

Thank you so much for their comments, good luck and good bye.
