The Clinical Audit

Description

What is a clinical audit and why as an International Medical Graduate should you care. As you settle into life as an international medical graduate in the UK or even as you prepare to join the UK workforce, you will come to realise that you are always expected to demonstrate that you have been involved in audits. There are two reasons, the first is that it improves patient care. The second reason is that it demonstrates your ability to work in a team. In this course, we will explain what a clinical audit is, how to get involved with audits and progress to leading them. We explain the basics of data collection and analysis. We explain how to get the evidence from your Trust once you have completed an audit. You will learn from the presentation template how to put your information together for a presentation in your Trust. Finally, we show you how to maximise the output from a single project and build up your portfolio (to learn more about building a portfolio, take the portfolio course).
