SURGICAL SKILLS CLUB
The ESSS Surgical Skills Club meets every Tuesday at about 6:00-7:30pm. Lookout for more details on our Facebook page, where they will be announced. The club enables members to develop their practical knowledge through our new surgical curriculum, which incorporates basic surgical skills such as knot tying and interrupted sutures. We are planning to run an annual 'assessment day', through which students can receive certification for their surgical portfolio. For all skills club resources, including video tutorials and curriculum documentation, visit Resources. Every session is supervised by Edinburgh-based foundation doctors and surgical trainees. It is therefore also a great networking opportunity to enhance your understanding of a surgical career and how to get there! Sign ups are via MedAll and the event details will be posted live on our Facebook page. Please note that there are limited spaces, so sign up quickly for a guaranteed spot. A annual cost of £5 will get you access to all the surgical skills sessions throughout the year (see membership for more info). |
